terrible wheel decals

@GideonPARANOID, you made it.

Really love the paint on this

Small/small is not HH.

That's fucking hot omg. Best cdale I've seen in a long long time

Missing a chainring bolt makes up for it though.

Something’s not right about it. Is that 2nd gen s6 with first gen fork? I do like a 5-arm spider on the hollowgrams. 4 bolts is a nice touch.

That's Ted King's, isn't it?

Edit: yes. https://www.roadbikereview.com/threads/ted-kings-custom-cannondale-supersix-evo-hi-mod.380702/

I'm into it

5 has always been the perfect number for spokes.

Like the 4 arm spider will make a difference to a weekend warrior.

Look at Italian cars.

Folks who say this sort of thing don't get it, I reckon.

Five is arbitrary. Four is optimised. Therefore four looks better. If it works better, it looks better. Include all the current optimisations and you have a 6kg beast that's distilled joy to ride.

Witness the fitness.

Just came across this bad boy on Weight Weenies

If it looks better, it works better

FTFY

I think the first time I came across this ground breaking step (cheap manufacturer) was on a Raleigh Lizard MTB at Halfords in. The 90s.

It looked shit back then too. 😁

Why don't the wheels have four spokes?

I think these are the worst rim decals I've ever seen

Have to say like curved TVs I seen industry is running out of ideas to keep people spending money...

The special arrangement of the spokes is optimized for the use of disc brakes on road bikes.

Ah, I see. Optimisation.

@Ordinata has a point imo, modelling cranks on solidworks or else doesn't change physics... you can go skinnier 5 arms or beefier 4-arms like shimano

Yeah nah, one less fastener, but mainly, Shimano put the arms where the load is; big gaps at tdc and bdc, and even figured one opposing pair should be beefier than the other. It's optimised AF compared to any five arm spider.

Shimano's cranks balance lateral rigidity of the big ring against weight in the design criteria, everyone knows the best front shifting is on a Shimano crank...

Bah, they had curved TVs when I was a kid :p

At first i thought someone had thrown some of those horrible cast wheels on for the lulz; they are pretty ugly.

Didn't post that to illustrate what I was saying, it's just random HH...

But yeah, FC-9000 > FC-9100 > FC-9200 for looks, gotta admit. It's going backwards
