  1. Hello,

    I want to build a new front wheel for my fixed gear bike and I'm considering ordering the dynamo and
    associated bits from bicycles.de.

    I know people here (Myra?) have dealt with them in the past; is the favourable exchange rate between
    the pound and the Euro still worth the extra bother?

    The prices of the B&M lights (Lumotec Oval Plus) are certainly cheaper than SJS but the price of
    rims and the dynamo + switch seems less competitive (45 and 64 Euros respectively).

    Also, can I get spokes from them? If so, how- the relevant category appears to contain no products.

    What I want:

    Nexus NX-30 QR Switch unit for it Mavic Open Pro rim Spokes (once I work out the lengths, hah) B+M
    lumotec oval plus

    Any advice appreciated!

    Regards,

    -david

    When it comes to spokes You should consider roseversand.de - its one of the best spokes sources here
    in .de and they should have the other parts too.

    That's a rather lovely bike. I have no digital camera, otherwise I would submit my own. Mine's based
    on a Raleigh Record Sprint frame, Sovus fixed/free hub with 105 dual-pivot brakes.

    Thanks, that's an excellent site and cheaper for the parts I want than anywhere I know of in the UK.
    DT Competition should do me; I assume you order the number you requires and then use the "Take
    Advice" button to tell the sales staff what lengths you need?

    I threw a normal foto on a scanner; now that I have a digital camera I should update (she looks even
    better with the Nelson Longflap saddlebag attached).

    sorry, I dont know how to place an electronic order: they are 50km away from my living, I go there
    by myself. IIRC the "Take Advice" button generates an email to their technical support: you can ask
    them this way ;-)

    Regards Martin
