but then ill be so aero lol not really
yah you are really right. aerospokes are NOT worth 250. definitely not what they go for new (i was just googlin' around and then i saw aerospokes going for 400 new and i said out loud "you're ****ing kidding me!! lol" and a coworker was like "what?" and i didn't feel like explaining the atrocious price of new aerospokes and what an aerospoke is and it was awkward anywho)
and it will make the bike heavier. and it might not even look better.
but...if i ever had a chance to buy a front aerospoke for around 100 bucks I WOULD DO IT IN A HEARTBEAT
ps hey scrod watcha doin with that aerospoke EDIT nevermind lol nice profit

Wut the! Why is everyone like I want the 75's but I'm not buying them? They look 95% new and they're the same price as RD2's or whatever. I would buy them but I already have a set (althought they're pretty beat up 
) and there's no way the Kilo is getting 75's.

That last one is gold ano. Obviously that only works on aluminum bikes.
I have a couple of textured colors too. Various types of rock- granite, slate, rust(!) and I think there are even some leatherettes.
There's always day-glo too.
There are so many silly colors in the world...

should i...
let a riding buddy buy my recently finished "hipster mountain bike"?
just got back from the mtb park, where i made the mistake of letting him try it. on the drive home he was driving me nutz about wanting to buy it & made me a crazy high offer
so far i like this bike a lot & have hardly "road" it...
but, a profit is a profit, right?

yeah dude, sell it as long as he's not going to be all "you didn't tell me it only cost blah blah blah" later. not worth drama, but **** man, sell it.
