After my computer-printed Tescos Value valentine’s day card went down like a plate of cold sick this morning, i seem to have redeemed myself by buying the wife a new ring…

…this ring is just one of a bunch of steel and alloy jobbies made by those nice chaps at Hope and sold as their 1 1/8th headset.

looks like i might get lucky tonight after all…

(she’ a lucky lucky girl… i bought her a kashima RP23 last week!)

by buying the wife a new ring

What? what have you done to weaken/damage her old ring… ahem… 😉

the 5-spot frame i bought her came sans-headset so i originally bought her a fsa orbit mx.

i soon realised that this was a little like shopping in elizabeth duke, so i sent that back and bought the hope (a bit more like ernest jones).

if she was a chris king (cartier), she needs to find a richer husband!

Custom top cap – cheaper but equally bling.

Ask PeterPoddy off here (although he did get her a CK headset as well !)

King headset on the current wifes Santa Cruz and the ‘benefits’ were forgotten about before the headset was paid for.

She’s a lucky lady. Mrs O got a Reverb seatpost for her birthday a while back- she loves it.
