The light blue ones are made of Smurfs.
The green ones Leprechauns.

The white ones come from Angels.
And the black ones from their blood.
The silver ones are recycled from old film stock, now you've all gone digital.
And the orange ones are from the sun.

They're twined with unicorn hair and angel dust.

I'd actually highly suspect rim tape over lap as another contributor. Plus, the seam / pinning process adds some weight.

However, as you've stated he's got an unbalanced wheel, not necessarily an unbalanced rim.

the red ones are the sweat of warriors.

whenaminotme? 05-29-09 07:19 AM

No sorry but I think you're wrong on that one.
The soon to be released tempered glass ones are made from the sweat of warriors, the red are made form the blood of their victims.
And the yellow ones from their bile ducts.

AidanJ 05-29-09 09:20 AM

yellow is the jaundice
