Those are the rotors I want on the emonda. Shop didn’t have my size. I think I am going to wait until I get new super teams.



Speaking of that, can a shop straighten a spoke? or do they replace that? I have spare spokes, but I am a little worried that the shop won’t be able to straighten the wheel. The only consistent complaint with these wheels is that they are hard to true, and in some cases shops refused to work on them.


If I can get these straighten and I don’t need a new fork, then I will get a new set at some point in the future, and only use these old ones for racing.
