Website is playing up, I can't log in or pay with PayPal. I want them to take my money but they won't have it! Barstewards!

Anyone else had better luck?

    I thought that, so I thought about it, then added extra things to my basket and it still didn't work :lol:

    I can't afford to add any more.

    You know I'd started typing that and stopped myself because I was getting tempted! How are you at building disc wheels :twisted:

    The Kaffenback is a damn good deal... I like the Cotic X more, but this is half the price...
    I've built a few of those disc 700C recently... Look out for Novatec 711/712 hubs on Ebay, they are the dogs and they sell for 90 pounds or less... in my view as good as Hope Pro 2. I have had them on my CdF for over one year now... 5K miles any weather and the bearings are as smooth as new with very little maintenance.

    There are some on the blog, here http://paolocoppo.drupalgardens.com/
