WTB- Nitto goodies

[gomango]

Looking for two "lightly" used items to complete a build.

A Nitto Craft 1 stem- 100 mm with a 26.0 clamp

A Nitto S83 seatpost

Please pm with "what you have" and how much you would need to release it from your custody. :)

TIA

27.2 my friend.

Let me check length...... :)

Edit: A 250mm should work.

If you can't find an S83 used ( I looked a lot) and end up buying new, I found Rivendell to have the best deal and they take paypal. still, that puppy is gonna set you back $90. Its totally worth it...its like jewelry and I could spend hours just enjoying its beauty.

Spendy, aren't they.

Lowest I found new was $77.

That Craft 1 stem is crazy expensive, but we want what we want.

Sounds like you are going all out with a craft 1

I have a certain vision for the Della Santa build I am working on.

The Craft 1 is expensive, but fits the build beautifully.

There is a gorgeous Della Santa on Facebook's Della Santa group that I would love to clone........

I approve!

I would use cambium bar tape to match the saddle, but that looks perfect otherwise.

Beautiful frame! Wish I could help you fill your part list :(

Problem with the Cambium tape is I don't like the feel.

Function trumps.

Thanks!

It will work out fine. This bike doesn't need to hit the road till the end of February when I visit Austin. Worst case scenario is I ship down one of my Kvales....... :)

I haven't felt it yet.

I haven't felt it yet.

I did last Saturday on our giant 71 mile snow ride out to Stillwater.

A buddy is trying it on his Orbea x bike.

I rode it for a dozen miles and to be honest, wasn't impressed.

On top of that it's expensive.

To be fair though, it was only 31 degrees and it's a little tricky to evaluate bike parts when it is that cold.

I'll stick with Fizik at $10 a box.

[thirdgenbird]

It is shockingly expensive. For what it's worth, I've got fizik on all my bikes :)

Fizik and only slightly matching is better than anything that matches. Its the bomb. I think their blue might be a good match though (based on internet pictures). Always can opt for black or white though.
