The only way the aerospok works is if you have a Zipp disc on the rear.

All I have to say is

NO WIRE HANGERS!

It's a real bike, one of the other owners at NOBRAKES. Most of our personal bikes eye catching whether you like them or not. Funny bikes, pursuit bikes, NJS, pink orange and mint wheels, all the stuff that some love and some love to make fun of.

No Brakes! has done a lot to make all sorts of colored components available. they've done their share of classy builds as well and are all really decent dudes.

also, they're the ones that were commissioned to make these bars.

Im assuming you meant paint, not make...right?

I got my aerospoke painted white from the factory. It only cost me $390 total so that $150 upcharge sounds fishy to me.

LOL, you spent $75 per spoke. I have a feeling that you are running a Diacompe SS, as well

Well, I read this a long time ago. I have no idea if it's true, or what Vittoria's factory situation is like.

Not so. I didn't remember the thread you were talking about, so I looked back a few pages and found it. I didn't even open that thread, much less post anything. I've certainly said it before, but I didn't seek out a thread on bar spins or anything.

i think he was just nitpicking at the fact that you said Rubino factory.

Oh, I hadn't even noticed that.

Something about this series of pics repulses me:

If I walked into a shop and it looked like that, I would leave. Looks like a fashion-clothes boutique rather then a bike shop.

TimArchy 03-04-08 11:13 PM

Well, it is a boutique bike shop based around the more fashionable aspects of cycling...

You would actually leave because of colored hubs and aerospokes? Strange.

Everyone is really nice and super helpful at no brakes. They get a lot of parts that others cant

quid 03-05-08 12:57 AM

so where can those hubs be had?

I think the odds are about 75% that it's a genious joke bike. Someone who would spend that kind of money on it would know what they were doing... you'd think.

Hi there, I'm 21st century bike culture, I'm currently a fashion/street trend, nice to meet you.

no i was actually just suprised and curious that they would seperate their factories, seemed like an odd business practice.

not everything i do or say is malicious
