I had even sillier ones in mind.
Tri aerospok.
But the people who were making them for me spent the best part of 6 months dicking me about with (plausible) excuses, until it got to the point where the 180 day window of opportunity to launch a Paypal dispute was looming, so I pulled the order.
The current wheels are a little lighter than the standard ones - albeit not a huge amount - it was more about rad/mad looks rather than weight loss.
Not enough use to assess the difference. Yet. I suspect it isn't huge.
The freewheel is of a similar noise to that of a Hope one. If not more so.
