Simplex _ 3453 quick release skewer nuts, originally uploaded by stronglight.

Wow, posting right from flickr is radical.

I want to draw attention to this fella ’stronglight’. He takes pretty decent bike part pics, and has an interesting collection of photos, usually from a variety of angles. He also has good vintage catalogue shots. He is not afraid to take pictures. I mean, he has shots of Campy bolts, lever clamps, etc. It’s fantastic for an old gear wench like me. Basically: he has a good job, and no wife (life?) and buys up tons of rad bits and bikes and meticulously shoots them AND… here is the kicker… writes about them. I find his writing informed but not unbiased. In a good way. I love reading about thread pitches and nominal nuances in nut knurling. Check his stream out. I like to leave comments that assume a vast reserve of impractical knowledge.
