Bike parts shopping is fun 

So, in between bouts of procrastinating the creation of my new cyclocross bike (working title: Azzuri Sporco), the new MEC catalog arrived.

Always fun to see what's in there. The best find in the bike section is probably these Freddy Speedeez.

The Speedeez are total knock-offs of the popular and useful $50 SKS Race Blades, a quick-on, quick-off fender set designed for easily converting your fancy, clearance-free road bike into an effective rain bike. The trick with the Speedeez is that they cost less than $20. Since anything that costs less than $20 is virtually free in my mental landscape, a set of these are very likely to end up in The Pile!
