Brass adjusters are back!
now with nuts
Hello again everyone,
Hope you’re having nice summers! I’ve been busy over here. The big batch of inventory that I stocked up this spring has dwindled down to just a few Rod Stewards and light mounts remaining, and I’m gearing up for some production runs coming up.
For now, please feast on some brass:
Brass barrel adjusters are back in stock and better than ever. And now there’s even matching nuts! You might like to use a nut with an adjuster in certain types of cable hangers, whereas with shift bosses, rear derailleurs, and compatible brakes it might make more sense to use the springs.
I recently completed a large order for Circles/Sim Works, and I have 3 silver brake boosters and 3 silver FMBCHs left over. They’re up for grabs on the site:
As a reminder, the FMBCH is currently not in production, so this your only chance to get one until I release a new and improved version.
I have a 1-page list of new products I’m working on, and I can’t wait to share more here as they emerge from proto-status in due time.
I won’t have a booth at Made or Philly Bike Expo this time around (unless someone wants to sponsor the trip to PBE). Especially with Made, which is local to me, it’s disappointing how inaccessible it still is to craftspeople without marketing budgets, given its name. I’m thankful that my goals for this business feel achievable without mainstream (lol, bikes) attention. So grateful for the support of a niche audience (that’s you - how cool.)
I’ll see you on the internet!
