No, it’s Colombo.

Just one more question....

Doesn't matter how many questions Colombo asks. Put your glasses on!

I can’t spot a single difference. I did spell check though and one says shimano and one says swissstop

Are they paying shimano ice tech royalties on those?

It really shits me that shimano doesn't make 6 bolt, put it that way lol. (Needed 140mm for the gravel).

I grabbed some of these for the Waltly (reminds me of the need to update the PYR thread with pics) which are comparable price wise to the SwissStops. They haul me up just fine, are silent and most importantly come in blingy colours. Shipping took about 2 weeks in January.

My revised set-up is almost Hambo approved.. SLX cranks (with AB oval chainring), Deore RD, XT shifter, Deore Cassette... but what chain do I need?
