Aerospokes
Hi,
I'm building up a new bike and am going to kit it out with X2 Aerospokes. I was wondering what the deal is with spacing on the rear wheel. Also has any one ever bought directly from their site? Any other info of these wheels and what you have to consider before fitting them on your bike would be very helpful!

An errant piece of flak tore a hole in a wing tank and, like a wounded bird, this is where she landed, not to return on this day, or any other day.

They are 120 spaced. You may be waiting a loooong time to get one but I stand by them. They are heavy but it really doesn't bother me too much. Did 100+ miles on them fixed without a prob, so that whole weight issue is really just a personal thing. I care about durability more than I do about weight. My rear gave me some issues before I sent it back to them to be fixed but after that it was fine. Since they know about that issue, if you order directly from them you won't have the same prob.
