Thank you for your support and patience waiting for Loose Screws to reopen. We are now based in Irvine, CA. The website is live
again, and we are ready to take orders. While there is a similar feel to the Loose Screws Website, improvements have been made.
Here's what's new about Loose Screws.

1. There is no longer a minimum order amount. We got a bit more automated and its easier for us to process orders now. Buy
that small part you need and enjoy!

2. Shipping has been simplified. A low rate for U.S. orders up to $74.99. Hit $75 and shipping is free! International shipping has
been changed to serve a standard option automatically instead of having to call in or do a separate email. All international orders
will go USPS priority, and occasionally DHL. It gives much more shipping protection than International first class.

3. The sorting of the products has been geared towards more common/popular products. This helps in search mode as well.

4. We now have a blog, our Loose Screws Helpful Blog takes all of the experience we have built up over the years, and puts it out
there, for all to see. See www.loosescrews.com/blog

5. Our Credit Card Processing is the most secure. Your card info never touches our local computers. It goes direct from the
loosescrews website over a secure channel to our credit card gateway and finally routed to our merchant processor. It's the
standard that all of the major websites should be using.

To add even more good news, we will be offering touring and commuting tires in time. Look for the first model late January, early
February. Hint...It's light weight, size, and suppleness will bring back to life many great bicycles of the 70's, 80's, and 90's. A
prototype can be seen on the Trek 520 pic that's on our blog. We'll also have a very special matching tube to go with it.

During the closeout sale of 2013 and 2014, we stocked out of bearings and certain cables. We'll be getting those back in, along
with chains, tubes, and the rest of the common cycling items. Also, there are about 1500 additional parts waiting to be listed on
the store, so check us out weekly for newly listed parts.

Again, we're very excited to be back and serving those who love to commute and tour by bicycle. Of course, we also greatly
admire our racing oriented customers. Keep pushing!

Questions? Shoot an email to inquiry@loosescrews.com. We're always happy to help with tech and setup questions.
