Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

No clue Slvoid, but with the official name being "Lightweight" on thousands of sold wheels and on the manufacturers website I think you're wheels have a problem. Apart from that your hubs look all wrong, your spokes look too tin and the spoke pattern in the rear is wrong. Looks like a bad mock up. Yours are definitely NO real LW's.

Slvoid was dupped!


BTW, your frame is all wrong too, as it should be a "Titanio" Colnago

LOL... it's actually a joke because the flat black profile on the wheels made em look like lightweights from the side.

*WOOOSH!*

I love the thin spoke look, thats why I chose the 05 Eurus over the 06... I'm not a big fan of the big blade Mavic look.


If I ever get a set of road wheels custom made, I'll look into the CX Rays.


New Page, needs a picture
