Just looking to pick up rings and gaskets, maybe a new bottom end since my buddy wrapped up the chain and chipped most of my case at the rear off.
Hiatus was good! After going through divorce I met a wonderful young lady and we've been together two years now! I'm rehabbing a rental property i own and back to tinkering on things in my spare time.
You guys here helped me through a very bad period in my life. When my ex left all I had was some bowls to eat from and my PC. Learning about and building MB's helped me keep my mind occupied and make some money until I found a job again. Seriously, may the Lord bless each and every one of you!

I likr boygofast on ebay, because the shipping is still reasonable there- but I wish he, and all of 'em had better descriptions of the parts and stuff- too much gueswork.
Got a few things from Pirates and Sick bikes- usually reasonable and fast-
some of the others I've wondered about- You can get something like a main bearing seal for what seems a normal price- but then they want to hit you with $13 or something to ship it out- when it's literally something you could put in an envelope and mail with a stamp.
It just seems like they are shooting themselves- and our beloved practical cost-effective ecological activity- in the foot, by price gouging on the shipping- especially on very small stuff. Got to keep the whole thing going ya know?
It's like racing cyclists- I was musing why all at once they were having so much trouble just staying upright in the Tour or Giro- Then it hit me- the manufacturers have made it all so darn expensive, that only rich basetards can afford it anymore! It's only a bunch of well-monied boys out there- it's like Fantasy Island, or Jurassic Park Meets Cycling- and they're falling all over each other all the time!
