Anubis Gauge Faces
« on: April 08, 2008, 12:31:39 PM »
Has Anubis "stopped taking new orders for gauge faces." 

http://www.anubiscycle.com/custom_gauge_faces.htm

Where else do we get them. I've looked for a while and haven't found many other sources.

He is moving to NC in a month or so and said it will be a while before he starts up production. I was lucky enough to get his last set of black 750 faces last month.
Im replacing the white ones I have now. Im not sure on others, but Anubis makes a nice product.
When the majority of the United States population get to be 70 years old, they will finally realize what is really important. And by then it'll be too late.

Just wanted to add that I bought the first set of Dusty's gauge faces and they look great!!  One of these days I will post a pic. He will also make them any way you want (i.e. pictures or designs on the face).

Is there a place to learn more about Dusty's faces that isn't a forum thread? Does he have a site?

No,  he is just a forum member who started making them because they weren't available. 
There is a thread where all of this started, but I am too lazy to search for it right now.

For you guys that have done the face replacement how did you get the needles off without braking them?

Spoons.  2 of them.  Put one on each side and slowly pry on it.
