Sweet Paul Hubs
Ordered these from Gaansari last week and built them over the weekend...they're Paul Component high flange, flip/flop, annodized a nice gold with a large Gaansari logo etched into hub body. Can't speak to their durability, etc as they are brand new, but Paul makes great stuff so I'm optomistic. Makes me wanna' go find some more gold components to pimp out the rock lobster...

Awesome! Never seen them in Gold, but I do have a slight gold fetish ( road bike has gold Tune hubs, gold chainring bolts ). I've seen the Campy high flanges explode when ridden on the road, but the Pauls look a lot beefier in the flange section, so they should be fine I'm guessing.
You should've got a gold pearl over top of the white paint on the RL

Hey, Thylacine, check out the gold Campy cranks...there's a gold Campy 43t chainring from the same seller as well.
