Does anyone know if there are any black MKS clips stocked in London? I need some mediums.

They're alloy, and easy enough to come by in the US.

Ha. 'get involved' I thought only my mate cookie ever said that...

If anyone wants NOS italian made alloy black clips, I found 2 boxes full (all size M) in my LBS today. I'm going back to buy THEM ALL! within the next couple of days.

I'll post up pics soon. I think I'll be able to post them out for £7 and break even, depending on if by bike shop has realised what they've been sitting on after my visit!

I had some sexy italian black alloy clips that snapped like twigs in a matter of weeks. Even Cavendish warned me off the alloy MKS and pointed me towards the steel.

Then you should only be allowed plastic clips, a nappy, blunt cutlery and one of these.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
