Hi Darc,

We only have a last few sets left, either red standard size or blue extended, but I think you're after blue standard length?

Rays blue are a bit light IMHO, I'd go black on yours Darc. If you are at Mr C's Saturday you can look at my Ultralites.

Mr C's is a well known fest of homo erotica I was very mindful to type Ultralites rather than nuts

Yeah I will be at mr C on Saturday.

I will have a look I want blue as I have a blue set of light weight ones at the moment but don't have a lock nut,

I like the blue as it splits the wheel up abit,

I will have a look at keiths ones once I'm back home

Cheers

d1 nuts look good but can still be un done with a 19mm socket

I bought some new nuts from ebay with internal drive last week. They were only £16 and i didn't expect much. Received them and they are really nice and fit and look great. My last set were ultralite to go with my ultralite wheels. They cost me £65 and after a year they have coroded to the point where I think they are unsafe. Link below.
