Yeah...they most likely made a few clicks and pings because I didn't ride your bike after truing the wheels today.

What happened to Squirrelli? Haven't seen him around in FOREVER.

Haha, I asked this in carleton's thread, and he didn't know either.

He died. Again.

dear scrod how does one toggle a womans dongle

Dude, come on.

This is awesome. Let the saving begin.

Am I confused, wasn't there a GENSTARWIND who has been around since around 2008?

/boggle.

Are you sure it's a woman?

he's fine, just not doing teh internet thing for a bit.

Awkward question, but how does Velomine offer wheelsets so cheap? I was poking around and they seem to offer wheelsets for the same price as the hubs by themselves, albeit they don't really come with fancy rims or spokes, but still (not to mention the cost of labor).

I'm guessing bulk purchasing and something like this

Miche Pistard clinchers for $115 or Sun CR-18's?

I honestly have no idea. I know they buy in bulk but they're prices are often even lower than bulk wholesale.

Hard to say. Those are two entirely different wheelsets designed for different things.

What would you get?

I would get neither.

What's your intended purpose? Track? Commuting? Everyday bombing around town?

Anything but track. I know the pistards don't like brakes, but maybe I'll go back to brakeless. Such fun times, although it will look weird on my very road oriented Sputnik.

What front wheel is this?

If they won't be seeing the track, why get track wheels? IMO you'd be better off with a well-built set of Fusions.

I have no idea.

I think those were made by Giant, that's all I can remember

Scrod, thoughts?:

You are correct; they're TCR's ;)

I wouldn't pay too much for a set... they're long been discontinued (when spinergy rev x's were new) and basically, break a spoke, the wheel is binned...

Scrodzy, I'm looking to upgrade my foot retention.

Should I go with a straps+cages set up, OR a BMX pedal/fat strap set up.(something like http://www.fyxation.com/shop/en/87-m...strap-kit.html).

I just use my fixie for commuting and some road distance for fitness. I Don't want to go clip-less because I like to wear conventional shoes when I ride.

Thank you good sir.

More of a preference thing.

I'd go BMX/Straps because they won't ruin your shoes.
