    Innovations that are no more but maybe still should be

    Thumbies were mentioned by the OP, but for me they are the pinnacle of mechanical simplicity at a time when things just worked. I still think bar ends are a great thing. Ripe for misuse, mis-positioning and malignment, but as a concept to get a different hand position/weight balance they work...

    Can't beat the feeling

    Split Crown Race Gap (My Mistake Sorted)

    Gap looks larger than I've seen previously, usually on mine 2-3mm. That said, there's more contact than not, so if it works it works. Burr marks suggest someone's done a homemade job on a once complete race

    Priceless Stumpy

    So understated in that fantastic colour, and so incredibly capable. If I wasn't such a P7 fanboy I'd be all over a garage full of stumpys.
