Subject: [CR]NOS OMAS "BIg Sliding" hubs for sale, Everest Chains
I have posted another few items that I picked from the Cinelli warehouse on my wooljersey "for sale" page:
The first one is an NOS boxed set of OMAS "Big Sliding" in 36 holes, http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/maasland/For_Sale_Items/OMAS+hubs.JPG.html
with 100 mm front and 125 mm rear, Italian thread. These are very nice hubs and make for a great option to the all-Campagnolo bike. I would like $85 per pair (delivered in the US). I have a limited number of these. Somebody recently asked how the name "big Sliding" came to be. I was told that it was due to a poor translation of "gran scorrevolezza" which could more accurately be translated as "great smoothness."
For these chains, I will be asking $50 each delivered. Right now they are still in Italy, but I am reasonably sure that I can have them sent directly from Italy to people who are interested. Payment would only need to be made once I know for sure that I can have them shipped direct from Italy (Matteo can you help?). Otherwise reserve yours right now. Availability will be quite tight on the gold ones, the silver availability is a bit better.
