I got bumped too. Now on the "new and improved" version. It is a lot
clunkier in mobile view than Classic. In order to reply to this thread I
had to switch my Android device to desktop mode. It's still usable, but so
far I'm not enjoying the new interface.

I picked my frame up from Golden Pliers in PDX today!
For those not yet hooked up, Kevin has a blue 54 and a dark gold 57 that
are not (yet) spoken for ;-)

BTW - Kevin at Golden Pliers in PDX also ordered a blue 54 (hanging on the

Paul, that reminds me of a bike I saw about a month ago that had wheels that
were built way off center.
I'm not sure what they were trying to accomplish with that.
I think it was propably an

I guess you missed the two photos of the center pulls on my bikes I posted
above. Yes, it's true, Dia Compe 750s are center pull brakes, and only
center pull brakes.

Just a note on cutting cable housing: If you already have a Dremel tool,

I added a thin strip of brass in the cable guide cutout of the lever. It is
2mm wide and 1mm tall. It increases the cable pull overall. Alternative to

My favorite thing winter items are split finger mitts that allow for my

Dia Compe DC-750 are in production and available new (with allen bolts for
