Hey uforgot!
Did anyone grab the ibex yet?
If not, I'm up for it!

Ritchey Biomax Bars, 40cm, oversized diameter (31.8).

http://www.ritcheylogic.com/dyn_prodfamily.php?k=98034

These bars came stock on my bike. I replaced them quickly with 38s -- I'm not sure they've even been ridden outside. They have no cosmetic damage. However, the cork tape that came on the bike destructed when I removed it, and I have not gotten around to removing the residue and bits of foam. Therefore, if someone would like to buy these, it would be my preference to exchange PMs and arrange for a "send date." It won't take me more than a week to clean them up, but I wouldn't be shipping them the next day either. I'd be happy to wait for payment until they were shipped.

$35 including shipping.

Hi Mimi! I like animal prints - what is a trashy cat short like (inseam length) is it a padded chamois lycra short? Thanks! tokie

Here are the pics of the Scott stem on my bike (you can see that the bike is fresh out of the box in these pictures -- no pedals, spoke protectors, and all ).




I will post pics of just the stem tonight when I get a chance to take pictures of it.

Edit: OK, here are both sides of the stem (you can see what I mean by "no rise" here):




Sorry everybody, I'm dimwitted and can't figure out how to PM pictures.

Holy Cow!
Does the post office have magically fast shipping on all these transactions, or what?
I'm so happy with uforgot's ibex that DH had to remind me of the "all-wool-entering-the-premisis-must-be-washed" policy, because I didn't want to take it off.

And as of a few days ago she has lots of other really good stuff for sale too, like xsmall tights and maybe more jackets (some wool!)...Also, she is suuuper helpful and is happy to accept paypal payment.

Just a good word from a happy customer. Like feedback on ebay only better

I'm so glad you like it! Just wish I could have traveled cross country with it!

I purchased Xeney's saddle before the sale started and she was lightning fast also. With a toddler no less!

That I failed to sell in the last T-Ebay sale but have been too lazy to actually post on Ebay.

1. FSA SL-K Carbon seatpost, 31.6 diameter, 300mm long. This has a smidgen of setback (I think it's about 20mm). Weighs in at 226g on my digital kitchen scale. Excellent condition. $35 including shipping.

2. No name carbon seatpost. 31.6 diameter. This came stock on my Scott Contessa CR1 Pro (the CR1 is second to the top of Scott's lineup, and their highest level WSD bike. It came spec'd with full Ultegra, so it doesn't seem like they took too many component shortcuts...). It has no branding marks at all, but it appears to be a nice, kind of mid-level carbon post -- it is NOT carbon-wrapped aluminum. It weighs in at 233g on my scale. Straight, no setback at all. Length is not marked but distance from center of clamp to end is the same as the FSA post, so I would tentatively call it a 300mm post. Beautiful condition, and a very aesthetically attractive post too, for what it's worth. $35 including shipping.

3. Scott Components stem, 80mm, 31.8 diameter. Weighs in at 149g. This stem came stock on my bike, and I needed a longer one. It is in brand-new condition, and would be a good option if you are "testing" various stems for length and don't want to invest a lot of money until you know exactly what you need. It is a "straight" rise stem -- i.e., the angle is the same no matter which way you flip it. I believe this makes it a 0/90 stem? I get confused on stem angles, but basically it will result in a positive rise that mirrors your HT angle. $15 including shipping.

4. Cannondale Fire stem, 31.8 diameter, +/- 8 degree rise. It is marked 110 but measures 120 c-c no matter how hard I try to get 110. I bought this trade-in stem at my bike fitting when I was trying out different setups. It is in very good condition, and it is very light for its length at 120g. $15 including shipping.

5. Bianchi Componenti stem, 100mm, 26.0 diameter. No idea what the rise on this is, it has a bit of rise but not an extreme rise, probably between 6 and 8 degrees if I had to guess, but that's just a guess. 148g. Good condition but shows more wear than the others. Again, good if you're testing stems. $15 including shipping.

I would also sell two or all three of the stems as a lot for someone testing stems, for less money ($25 for 2/ $30 for 3?, including shipping?).

I also have two Thomson posts (one Masterpiece and one Elite) and I'm only using one (currently the Elite actually, but if I were to sell one I'd probably keep the Masterpiece). Both are in excellent condition (they are bulletproof anyway), and both are 27.2/250mm. I'm on the fence over whether or not it's worth selling one, though... I only have one bike that fits that sized post right now, but given how much they cost new vs how much I could sell them for vs how much I would have to pay if for some reason I should ever want one again... it's not clear to me if it's really worth selling one. But if someone presents a really compelling story about how much it would help them, I might consider it . (Sorry, inside the workings of liza's squirrel-brain).
