  • Just got mine from hubjub for £20! Give Drew a shout!

  • how did you get it for 20? aren't they £25?

  • good telephone manner I guess... and they had a sale on...

  • How have they just jumped up to £58 quid?!

  • Bonkers

    this looks way more clean.
    it's £28 + shipping from japan

  • has anyone used one of those ^ though? they look a bit dodgy to me for some reason

  • ye I'm looking for some feedback on those too. I'm currently using some dia compe clamp ons. they work pretty well tbh.

  • ^^ did some homework - that japanese website don't have them in stock so I emailed NJS exports, the guy said they stopped selling them because they were 'not strong enough' - some bent, some slipped etc... there is a good thread on here about making your own but when HubJub had them for £20 it seemed like the best option... it arrived the next day!

    (They had some glitch with their site hence the sale prices, few people got some bargain H+Son TB14s...)

    Cheers

  • I have one that has never been fitted - in box with instructions. Came with dia-compe brake lever too. Caliper is silver with black clamp bit. Bought 2 over 2 years ago, one fitted to gf's track bike. Heavy heavy commute and never a problem... Recommended

    £45.

  • Fuuuucck I should have bought one when they were £25!

  • I feel ya. I paid 60 odd quid!
