After a nearly 9 year pursuit, I just got my grubby mits on a "Panther Pink" J.P. Weigle Mountain Bike from 1985!

You're going to get wet, either from outside or inside. 89*/75% ....

BTW, that is a great jacket, and at least 75% off.

Highly compactable too, compressed down to a small jersey pocket size bundle.

The matching seatpost flutes brings it to a level that you can just sit back and gaze upon its perfection.

These things are awesome, legs feel great, free massage without bugging the GF


Also, Wolftooth SS aluminum cog (18T), black cage bolts, and replacement T25 Torx screws for a SRAM spider. Man this back cog is awesome and the replacement bolts are black, and higher quality than the stock SRAM ones.

Super dull - brake cables.

Next big purchase - brake pads - when I can get to a shop that stocks campy inserts.

They were also an unattended consequence of matching up with another recent purchase:

Funny story: I was browsing eBay for unrelated purposes. I saw a pair of those exact S-Works shoes in my size. They match nothing on my bike. I bid on them anyway and won (aided by an eBay Bucks certificate). Will report back.
