The WTB thread
We don't seem to have a general Want To Buy thread, so I figured I'd start one. This is for the small shit really. Posting a new wtb thread for bikes or wheels or something would probably be more effective.
I want to buy a pair of thumb shifters. Falcon/Sunrace friction thumbies are fine. Just something for this old Marin for urban destruction.

I've got a pair of Shimano friction thumbies that I probably won't ever use. They aren't fancy, but they're in great shape for their age.
I'll sell them to you for $300. You have PM.
I don't need it, but I would like a Shimano mountain RD that's a bit nicer than the one I have on wife bike.

I want to buy a short reach silver front brake caliper.

Want:
-3T Rotundo or similiar bars in 42cm. Classic bend, 31.8.
i have black SCR-5C's if you don't have large hands...
edit: i actually have the tektro version of the SCR-5 (non compact) also... same exact levers.

I have large hands. Sorry. Not that into the Tektros.

you mean the tektro r-100 (small hand version of r-200)?
speaking as a guy who rides scr-5's right now, those tektro levers blow whale dick. but if there's a diff. tektro model... uh, that would be better.
anyway, i could use a silver 26.8 post with setback
~~
i have r-200's and scr-5c's on my desk right now. they feel and look the same (other than the pattern on the hoods) but i never used the tektros cause i pulled them off immediately. so i honestly have no idea.

i'd like to try a turbo/flite/rolls

Some dumpy Acera thing. I'd take that LX off of your hands.
Tarckee, shame that you don't want a pair of r200's, because I have a set that I'd sell you for a six pack.
In my family, brave men run.
I'll send it to you. It's missing the bolt that clamps on the cable.

why? I've used them a ton and think they're fine...
I'd buy some shimano DT shifters for 8 speed. SHOMEWHATCHAGOT :)

That's fine. I'll just tape the cable on.

I can't speak for Turbo's, but I can certainly say that the Flite and the Rolls have totally different shapes.
In my family, brave men run.
i have a pair of scr-5s in black for sale,
turbos and flites feel similar to me, rolls feel totally different.
for me: flite & turbos are about the same- turbos are a bit bulkier/more padded, the flite more trim, rolls feel like an uncomfortable turbo to me

Odd. My butt loves Turbos and Rolls.
While I may not be out looking for gnar to shred, if I see any gnar lying around, I'm definitely going to give it the what for. -Heath
WTB: Silver alloy compact crankset. Double, 170, outboard bearing BB?
i've never tried any of them. just want to try out different seats. thought a more classic looking saddle would look good on the torelli
When faced with the gnar, you shred -DangerScott
WTB: the shallow drop syntace bullhorns
-dt shifter mounts for 86-87 cannondale frames
-dt shifters (want friction front, 9spd rear)
-tt brake levers
-short cage rd
-12-27 cassette
-still figuring out if i want to pick up another pair of sram s300 cranks, but depending, either 110 or 130 bcd 34t ring.
vision for cannondale is compact double (48/34) with 9spd with smaller range for smaller increments of shifting, and bullhorns with tt levers and cross interrupter levers. occasional rack/flat bar usage, but that will probably more frequently be the mtb i'm looking for.

I make them feel bad about the way they make they bikes, so they can go home and re-focus on they bikes ~ Baybe Champ The Scraper Bike King
damn. maybe i'll stay with the current set of cranks. i wanted to put on outboard bearing cranks like those srams i mentioned...hmm. they aren't bad cranks as far as stiffness, but i don't expect forte crabon cranks to last eternally.

i saw $50 shipped for the turbo in the trade thread. whatcha want for the flite ti?

I could use a 111/68 campy BB
Grindmaster, I have a set of syntace bars but they are the 39cm width and I only have 1 TT brake lever!
I was thinking maybe $30 for the saddle, and I can't imagine shipping being more than $4-5 dollars. It's used for sure, but still in great shape.

Joe, I've got a rear with a campy hub and Rigida rim that is pretty nice. I got it from EJ like two years ago and never used it. It doesn't have a freewheel on it though.
I also have a tubular that does have a freewheel with a rotten tubular stuck to it.
Your bike sucks and we have a team of experts working around the clock to prove it. ~SuperVillain Easy Spoke Length Calc: http://houseof3d.com/pete/applets/wheel/appwheel.html
Hmmmm. the campy hub takes a plain-old thread-on freewheel, or does it take a cassette? basically i'm trying to step up to 8sp if i am going to keep nice-ifying the trek, since the 600 ultegra rd i have can support up to 8sp and i currently am running 6sp with a shitty old maillard hub.
Yeah. It takes a thread on freewheel.

^yessir, early 90s rd-6401. for some reason i thought it was max 8sp, but i'm glad to hear otherwise.
Still looking for an interesting, vintage, or otherwise badass 54 cm steel, lugged track bike to replace my Alien that is too small.
While I may not be out looking for gnar to shred, if I see any gnar lying around, I'm definitely going to give it the what for. -Heath
I still have the ugly purple Allez.
And I want a Dos Eno freewheel.
My friend Erik desperately needs a Miche freehub body for Shimano/SRAM cassettes. Currently has the Campy hub body. Will probably trade if that's the case.
