(14)A superbly carved ash-and-ebony broom shaped for stability and speed. Brass bands and polished bearings reduce drag. Nonmagical but expertly balanced for racing; favored by professional couriers and novice racers alike.
A compact brass turbine with a leather-throttle harness that augments an existing broom's thrust for short sprints. Runs on a replaceable steam/ether canister.
A magically enchanted broom that functions like the classic Broom of Flying. It takes a rider, can carry a small passenger, and obeys basic commands.
A racing broom enchanted to be lighter and more responsive. Treated with wind-shaping enchantments and gyro-stabilizers crafted by Gregory.
A legendary-level racing broom incorporating rare wards, clockwork boosters, and aerodynamic enchantments. Used by champion racers and nobles.
A small brass canister charged with compressed steam/ether mixture used to power wind-assist modules and certain clockwork boosters. One canister = one module activation.
A silvery varnish infused with feather-lift sigils. Applied to broom shafts to reduce drag and impart a slight buoyancy.
Leather-framed goggles with adjustable lenses, foggers, and a minor lens-scrying enchantment to reduce motion blur and pick up signal flags.
A contoured leather seat with brass grips and adjustable stirrups designed to reduce rider fatigue and improve control in sharp turns.
A kit of files, quick-oils, replacement bearings, brass rivets, and tiny gears. Designed for on-the-fly repairs between heats.
A palm-sized clockwork bird that scouts courses, checks wind currents, and carries messages; useful for pre-race reconnaissance.
A shimmering vane etched with runes that trims airflow and channels minor planar breezes to increase lift. Gregory imports the delicate rune-etches from a planar-smith contact.
A small glass phial containing a silvery liquid that, when consumed, functions like the Feather Fall spell on the drinker and up to five willing creatures within 30 ft.
A small pouch with spare ball bearings, miniature brass rivets and leather washers for quick field repairs.

Shop Atmosphere
“Gregory hums old sea-shanties while he polishes broom shafts and insists that a proper racing broom must have exactly two brass bands and one notch carved on the handle for luck. He writes ledger notes in fountain-ink scented with ozone, offers a free 'wind-read' (a 1-minute gust-check) to every customer, and will not sell certain experimental attachments to those he deems 'reckless'—he keeps a list called the Black Tail of names he forbids from using his Speed Brooms.”
