No problems with the wheels so far, but I only have about 200 miles on the bike.

I love this bike, but I ride my Langster more just because I consider my Langster my "beater" bike.

I've had 2 broken spokes on the Langster and had to true the wheels a couple of times (once after crashing big time).

Alex wheels are generally garbage. A lot of bike companies put them on their bikes assuming people willl swap out the crappy wheels for upgraded wheels.

this was my hot ride.
my Huffy 3D Racing, circa 1990.

what's awesome about it is somehow I fried the hub going off of a ramp when I was 10 and it woudn't coast. I've been on a fixed gear since before they were en vogue.

i miss that bike. most of my current scars are from that baby. including the one between my eyebrows that I got when i did a face plant, snapped my glasses in two, driving part of the metal frame into my skull.

yeah. finally got around to taking a picture of this thing...

specs:
cannondale frame/fork
suntour superbe pro hubs (28 front, 32 rear) laced to an araya 1w up front and sun mistral rear.
suntour superbe headset, with a 90mm nitto trackstem & sakae cut-n-flips.
suntour superbe cranks, superbe pro pedals & 13t rear cog, 46t sugino 75 chainring, cinelli clips, cheap-ass bmx chain.
suntour superbe seatpost with a spanish copy of a cinelli unicanitor track saddle.

Nice. Always had a thing for the original track dales.

oh wow, i didn't even recognize that as a cannondale. usually i find them ugly, but thats a hot little ride. makes my track stem lust flare up.

well, it's probably unrecognizable 'cos i'm a sh*te photographer. but thanks.

Thanks Dave!

nice wall.
I haven't been climbing in so long. stupid bikes are taking up too much of my time. in a good way, that is.

Just converted a slightly too large for me Peugeot. Not sure what make, model or year. 52/15, Phil Woods hubs, Mavic Open Pros. A real sweet ride, though the bridges into Manhattan really kick my ass.

Dirty Dan, who's front wheel do you have there?

Thanks, the wall is in our attic and is 12'x12'. The angle is pretty steep. Even with the wall, I don't climb at all anymore either. Too much riding.....

Whatchu mean cuz?

I think he means "what kind is it?". It's an IRO hub with Velocity Deep Vs right?

Yep.

Here's my Nishiki that I just built last week. It's a little small for me so I may sell it.

thanks. : )
sugino 75, 44/16, 165 mm.

Nice! Our bikes should get together for some freaky bike sex.

and by 'freaky' you must mean 'incest'....cause they're from the same family....? <eww>

and on a sidenote I think my bike is finished (black splotchy paint and all)

yeah, my bike just wants to be friends.

Well after much much anticipation I've finally gone fixed. No more ghetto single speed for me. I put some Dureace cranks took off all the ugly stuff, put on some new handlebar tape. I was debating on whether or not I should paint her, I'm thinking gold with black stem, seat post, rims and hubs, gold spokes, with black lettering. Then again I kinda like the scuffed up original paint, anyway here she is.
