Welcome to VELOCIPEDE SALON. VSalon currently allows unregistered guests to view the forum. If you want to participate - and we hope you do - please sign up and wait for one of our good looking moderators to approve. You do not need an invite! Please be aware when you request membership we ask for a real name with contact info. Screen names and cryptic email addresses are okay, but no one is accepted in the community without real life/real world credentials. A moderator will contact you, just say hi and and how you found us. We'll wait to hear back from you. Please note: This is a work place friendly forum and only ask you honor this and help keep the discussions lively. Dear friends, you are here because you found this or someone told you about this place. This really is a salon. It says so right here, go ahead and look!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salon_(gathering). This Salon is where bicycle artisans, industry types, racers, cyclists, bicyclists and their friends exchange in a comfortable setting. We bring some history but none of the bags with us from our former fav. places to hangout. Nuff said. There are ground rules for everyone to follow, most are explained in the agreement (below). This Salon is ment to remain work place friendly. Don't ask us what the color of the kit is. This will cause immdeiate removal from the Salon!!! Sorry, we voted and that's the way it is. This Salon is operated by volunteers who donate lots of hard work, insight and generosity. Feed the moderators beers and give lots of karma, they are "easy"...I made sure of that. :) Warm Regards, Too Tall and our handsome staff of volunteers

NFS SpeedShop: Free Shipping

Published on 12-08-2015 10:09 AM Number of Views: 3441

Huge thanks to everyone for their orders this past friday & monday. Everything has shipped and now processing new orders.

When you order from NixFrixShun Bicycle Speed Shop don't be surprised to see your shipment in two days. I try to get it there ricky tickey ;) ALSO don't throw away the packaging without looking first. Frequently, if you order more than one item I'll toss in extra samples of NFS to be used for good or evil your call.

If you have not already heard...Free Shipping Anywhere as in Anywhere for orders of $30 or more.

Buy NixFrixShun SpeedShop Caps. They are the real deal. No offense to others who make caps howevahhh if you savour old school cotton caps that do the deed yet still look swank off the bike this is what you need. Super well made by one of the oldest cap makers in the world for NixFrixShun using classic color strips. Caps are either white with a black stripe or black with a red strip.

***Just got a new case of the stealth black on black handlebar tape. Check out the price! Premium handlebar tape for a proletariat price. I've got 5000+ miles on the first set of tape and it's going strong. Hand down (ouch) the best tape I've ever installed. Get some.

NFS+ NePlusUltra is flying off the shelves. Feedback has been GREAT :) Thank you so much.
