Bora WTO 33333333333 and Apparel and Supplements and Little Fish

Campagnolo Backbone Explosion Sale
The wheel section, but it ended today.
Or so I'd like to say, but as of the day before yesterday, Tuesday
it had practically already ended.

↑Bora WTO 333333333333 we had in stock this morning
The very front one is disc brake spec,
the rest are rim brake spec.
Some have already been handed over or shipped out
so this isn't the total number we ordered.

First, I stocked the Bora WTO 45 disc brake
Dark label at an irresistibly cheap "customer-lure panda price guarantee"
(because I thought it matched general taste and current trends),
and for both rim brake and disc brake in 33/45/60mm heights
and both dark label and bright label
anything ordered during the sale period would also be
subject to the customer-lure panda price guarantee, but
in the end, all the WTOs we ordered were 33mm height—
setting a mysterious record.


↑Limited Bora with red anodized rear hub and red lettering, or

↑like with the limited gold-logo Speed 40, whenever I think
"should I reserve this as personal stock," it sells out.
While saying these wheels are "sold out,"
if someone finds out they're on my bike through some chance encounter,
they'll think "that guy said it was sold out while hoarding it for himself."
I hate that, so I sell down to the very last one.

So with this Bora WTO 33,
for the rim brake spec versions with Shimano freebody,
the distributor ran out of stock,
so we couldn't order at all, and on Tuesday the day before yesterday
we had to apologize to 3 inquiries.
Even pulling out my reserved personal stash didn't change the result.
I'm truly sorry.
If I myself really wanted the WTO 33,
I could just wait for restocking, but when that happens
the purchase price will definitely exceed
this sale's customer-lure panda price.


↑This is the disc brake spec dark label.
I inspect all the wheels, and
except for this rear wheel being slightly off to the left,
there weren't any with obviously misaligned centers.
On average, I trued about 2-3 points,
but conversely, not a single wheel went without adjusting nipples at all.


Since the distributor's stock doesn't change (they're closed)
from Friday evening through Monday morning,
it became clear that our store orders for
rim brake 33mm dark label Shimano exceed
the distributor's inventory, so
as a special exception, I ordered the Campagnolo freebody model
and decided to handle it by swapping freebodies.


For rim brake models, the included brake pads also need
to be swapped from Campagnolo spec to Shimano spec.


↑This bright label was the distributor's last pair.
Not a case of "no dark label in stock so we'll reluctantly take bright"—
they originally wanted bright label,
so it worked out perfectly.


This is a separate case—a bright label Campagnolo spec
that wasn't in the opening photo, but
due to circumstances with the customer's frame,
the requirement was "the drivetrain is Campagnolo
but the brake pads must be Shimano spec,"
so I specially arranged it with
freebody Campagnolo / brake pads Shimano.

Profit? Who cares, fool
↑Those aren't my words—
they're from the customer-lure loss-leader black-and-white fiend
someone help me


For a rim brake dark label customer who wanted
Continental GP5000S Tubeless Ready mounted,
I wanted to observe the air retention over time, so
after inspection I added sealant(Imagi) and
mounted the tire.

Current Campagnolo wheels have the valve hole
on the side with the manufacturer name (Campagnolo), so
normally I align the center of the GP5000 label marking with
the valve phase, but
with Campagnolo wheels I sometimes
align manufacturer names (Campagnolo and Continental),
or model names (Bora WTO and GP5000).


But with the GP5000S TR,
the opposite side of the model name has no manufacturer marking,
and there's only one label, so prioritizing ease of finding the valve
I mounted it with the label directly below the valve.

That covers the wheel section.
Thank you for your purchases.
The Bora 45 WTO disc brake dark label is also
all sold or reserved, so that's finished.
For customers wanting the SRAM XDR freebody,
the freebody restock will come after the distributor's Obon break.
Campagnolo complete wheels are only sold in
Campagnolo or Shimano freebody versions, and
for SRAM XDR you buy one of those wheels first,
then install a separate-sale freebody.
This time I'm selling it as if it was originally XDR freebody spec as a special exception.
In my opinion, with disc brake spec wheels,
there are probably more SRAM users than Campagnolo users n (continued..)


Next, the Backbone Explosion Sale apparel section.
This continues. Or whether there's even a deadline, I don't know.
What's certain is it ends when the distributor runs out.
The image above shows the third and fourth shipments if the first order counts as shipment one.
Stock depletion will be announced through what we send,
but what hasn't arrived yet is only
Pottagio socks in gray/black and black
in XXL (size 45-47).
I'm currently ordering the fifth and sixth shipments, but
I can't confirm whether they came through until
after the distributor's Obon break ends.


As promised, I bought supplements and such said to be effective
for spinal regeneration from part of the sales revenue.
I'll send it to the distributor soon.
The image above is Hyperdrive EAA from Haleo brand,
and EAA stands for Essential Amino Acids,
in other words just essential amino acids, but


I chose it because it contains collagen peptides well.


I received many comments about Glico's Joint Plus being discontinued
and about supplements that could serve as replacements.
Thank you for those.
Some of them mentioned Haleo
(I was planning on this anyway).
I don't think it's well-known, but people who know it probably think of it
as a high-priced protein brand.
Even when Joint Plus was still in production,
I once brought some Haleo product as a get-well gift
to an acquaintance who was hospitalized with a fracture, and
that supplement came in a cylindrical can of powder.


Also, I'm including Nature Made Vitamin C as well.
The point here is deliberately not choosing their Calcium or Super Calcium,
which I secretly think makes me look sophisticated.



Also, bone cracker mix that's like a drinking snack, and



Almond little fish, though it has a lot of almonds in it, will be included too.
