Agreed. However this may have been a better candidate for the "Bike Porn" thread.

no.
the wheels are X-rated, the bike without the wheels is PG-13.

adriano 10-04-11 06:31 PM

is that 16 spoked?

Soil_Sampler 10-04-11 06:34 PM

looks like it.

adriano 10-04-11 06:36 PM

it appears, yes.

why the low performance high durability tires with the high performance low durability wheels? the two dont compensate.

hairnet 10-04-11 06:52 PM

It's a fixie, reasonablility was never a factor.

PlattsVegas 10-04-11 06:58 PM

That wheel looks like it would disintegrate instantly if you rode it on the street. Thats just plain stupid in my opinion. I would rather buy a wheelset for a fraction of that cost that was actually durable. Looks good though, so i guess thats all that matters (not).

put the campy hubs back on!

adriano 10-04-11 07:33 PM

16 spokes is probably sufficient for the use it gets.

there is nothing wrong with 16 spokes? I have a fixed set of Mavic Cosmic 16 spoke wheels and have held up quite nice

hahaha no... 16 spokes is just fine. I was making a comment on about 90% of the tarck crowd cuz all they do is take pictures of their bike instead of riding it.

so sick of campy record cranksets

homebrewk 10-04-11 07:49 PM

I know... 75's and Dura Ace FTW.

maybe its just me or the angle, but those do not look like campy record pista cranks. like the rounder ones I have in my garage.

homebrewk 10-04-11 07:56 PM

Good question... I don't know off the top of my head.

adriano 10-04-11 08:26 PM

adriano 10-04-11 08:27 PM
