Where do I get some long gold nipples from ?
« on: May 13, 2007, 10:37 AM »
I want some long(ish) gold nipples to build my Arayas up. I bought some from Custom Riders but they are a bit yellowy rather than gold. The ones from Alans are only short (12mm) 

Does anyone know where I could get some or has anyone got any thoughts on whether the 12 mm ones look ok, they just look to me that you wont see much of the colour or am I wrong ?  :uglystupid2:

Cheers

These turned up eventually from Winstanley's  ::)

They're 16mm in total (the head is 3mm), but they look a kind of orangy-gold  :-\

Just got the nipples from Cyclesport. They are exactly the same make as the ones from Custom Riders.

Oh Bugger  :tickedoff:
