Obsessive searching for vintage mountain bikes and components. Some occasional road bike love too.

NOS Campagnolo bar con covers

Those bar cons I bought needed new covers. Well here they are.

Moots Ti 100mm stem

I had been looking for a Ti stem for my Moots Vamoots. This one is perfect.

Campagnolo friction bar cons

These are the "Charlie-approved" shifters for a drop bar Cunningham. I was happy to pick up an extra set.

Michelin Hi-Lite Tour 27 1 3/8

My Cunningham Expedition uses a 27 inch front wheel and a 700c rear wheel. Fortunately, Panaracer makes a nice 27 inch tire, but I was still happy to find these period correct Hi-Lites to replace the crusty ones which are currently on the bike.

Sedis Traveller Chain

A new Suntour chain just went for around $115, which seems high to me. Back in the day, I was always a Sedis man and so was very happy to pick this one up. Indeed, the model is better than the one I used to favor.

Smart Tools Angle Finder

Curious to find out the geo on my bikes, I picked up this neat tool.

1983 Stumpjumper

New seat, grips and tires, but other wise original and clean. The production bike that brought mountain biking to the masses.
