We’ve a few new items in the most recent VO shipment - pictured above are the Grand Cru 1” Threaded Headset &
1 1/8” Aheadset along with the new 37m Hammered Alloy mudguards. The headsets have the same attributes as the regular versions of each (sealed bearings, split crown race), but in this instance they’ve been given a highly polished chrome finish and new logos. The 37mm mudguards have the same hammered finish as the 45mm version but are more appropriate for skinny tyres (maximum width of 27mm)
Restocked are the Grand Cru Seatpost, Stainless Braided Gear & Brake cable sets, Dia Compe Cable Clips, Constructeur Racks, Leather Chainstay Protectors and Bottle Cages amongst others.
Also sneaking their way to us were the beautiful Grand Cru 50.4bcd Crankset (below). They are stunning in the flesh with polished, cold forged, 7075 alloy arms, CNC chainrings (46/30t), stainless hardware and matching dustcaps. 5-10 speed compatible, they have a greater gap inbetween the rings compared to classic TA cranks for easier derailleur set up. They also allow you to use a variety of TA chainrings (from 26t to 62t!), have regular ISO pedal threading and fit on 118mm wide JIS taper bottom brackets - no special tools are needed and all the bolts are allen headed...stunning!
