I don't know if that's a deal deal - at least one place here that seems not to have any spectacular deals has them for the same price. I guess that assumes yr in a major urban centre.
peabody, I've got 5-6000 kms on a pair of vees ridden in all conditions and the only mark on the finish is from when it was locked up and someone dragged their hoopdie across my rear wheel and frame. And if you saw my bike you'd know I'm not babying it or polishing it every day.
