The Dodelta

The Campagnolo C-Record Delta brake is one of the most beautiful components to ever grace the history of cycling. While some wrenches claim they’re shit, other, more pedigreed mechanics love their unique center pull braking mechanism. Which brings me to the Dodelta. Commentary on the brake, or the user? You decide…

SOLD OUT: Purple PAUL Components Touring Cantis and Moon Units

SOLD OUT: Purple PAUL Components Touring Cantis and Moon Units

They’re back… AGAIN! This time, it’s for the Saturday shoppers. I’ll even throw in some Viking decals!

I love the PAUL Components Touring Cantis. I’ve had them on my touring bike, my cross bike and just about everyone I know has them on at least one of their bikes. They’re a classic, no-nonsense cantilever brake. Unlike many cantilevers, these arms are angled upwards. This gives the brake a much narrower profile without significantly reducing stopping power.

As a throwback to the 80′s MTB era of bright anodizing, I teamed up with PAUL to produce yet another run of purple Touring Cantis and matching Moon Units.

$240 Shipped in the USA, $250 shipped internationally. That gets you a pair of Touring Cantis (front and rear) and a pair of Moon Units at the PiNP Web Shop.

*Please note: The anodizing is less blue than shown here, it tends to be more magenta, much like the purple anodizing from the 80’s. It’s hard to get the tone right in these photos.

Moment Industries: Made in the USA Disk Rotors

With the popularity of disk brakes on cross and (gasp) road bikes, it’s nice to see some made in the USA options available. That aside, I can’t get over how metal this looks. Like something out of ancient Alemannic imagery. Here’s the gist:

“Moment Industries has designed and manufactured rotors for the last seven years. They recently introduced the “Storm” rotor which is laser cut and manufactured in California. The Storm is offered in 160mm – 185mm – 203mm. Considering the majority of 2013 cyclocross bikes will come standard with 160mm disk brakes like the Marin Cortina (shown in the photo) this shift will allow riders to upgrade the components to better fit their style.

MOMENT brake rotors are forged from 410 series straight-chromium stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance, heat-treated to superior hardness at temperatures in excess of a 1000°F, then double disc-ground for guaranteed removal of imperfections.

Made in the USA”
