New wheels :)

I got a good buyer for my Zipp clinchers and the same time got a very good deal on new DT's. Damage was minimal, but new look is here.

Those stickers actually have a nice aesthetic about them. A bit Rietveld, or Bauhaus.

Gimme a break, it's winter here and I have nothing better to do than switch from one light wheels to another without any reason. It's fun, keeps 41 busy as well. Plus, I entertain you with pictures of my power outlet almost every day.
