I know right? really tempted with that just for the purely 'shit and giggles upgrade' but as I said I will wait for the disc gets refined.
For the wheels, I am looking around for either some nice rims to replace the crabon, maybe even tubs (I never ridden on tubs before, but from what I've head they're amazing) heart wants enve, zipp or hed, but wallets disagree for the moment ;)
In regards to the cracks, I guess I will have to clarify for the general public (I won't take the blame but I'll take responsibility):
Seatstay crack: occurred as I used this bike as my everyday commuter and one time I locked it up in Shoreditch, someone tried to steal it and instead of breaking the lock they broke the seatstay instead #FUCKERS
The top tube crack: Was when I locked the bike outside work when refurbishment was happening to the building it looks like a tool or material that was dropped onto the top tube, this didn't crack the top tube, but caused a ribble crack to the material. But I didn't want to crack at all, I asked Ed to repair it asap. Plus with Ed's work there is now life warranty to if anything goes wrong he will mend it for free again! =)

Split prices?

A friend at my club ride has Enve 3.4(?) clinchers laced to Chris kings. That's about £2500 worth of wheel, I mean 10/10 in the bling department but it sounds like you're being chased by an angry strimmer/hive of bees if he's ever on your wheel. Though nothing beats the sound of a Zipp at high speed, must be the dimples.
As for the cracks, that is so unfortunate, should be renamed the "Unfortunate Series of Events Magnet"

Wait till the new Enve rims come out.
Got a pretty interesting braking surface claiming a 30% improvement (make of that if you will).

Did it crack in two separate places? That's a bit terrifying! Read your earlier post about the wide rim wheels being super awesome. I had the pleasure of riding some 45mm deep, 25mm wide rim carbon clinchers last week and they were super comfy with Scwalbe ones. Saying that I just got some 23mm tubulars and on a smooth stretch of tarmac they are like butter.
On a side note the new CF SLX in Grey with the aero cockpit is pure porn!
