Royce hubs

ffs ed - it's ridiculous.

Now go and learn how to spell 'irony'
fucking epic win!

This thread proves that high flange is so last year.

Cliff from Royce will not guarantee radial lacing, made that very clear!

EDIT; There was a quote from page one I was supposed to put here sorry - mucked that up!

Has anyone got throught o ROyce in last few weeks?

cliff's on vacation in august.

Thanks Teddy, Cliff forgot to mention that bit to me.....

jaseb mentioned that cliff is back on the 24th, let's hope so, i'm also waiting on hubs and bb to finish my build and I would rather have royce than Phil . Come to think of it, taking August off would be kinda nice too....

Haha what a thread. Great.

this arrived today:

and the lifetime guarantee...

Definitely worth quoting again.

Teddy, a question;
Assuming you're using the vintage campagnolo pista cranks?
I'll be buying a set of the hubs and corresponding BB to go on my current build with a set of the afformentinoed cranks. It's likely to be closer to the end of the year but if you can let me know if the 109 BB gives you a proper chainline I'd appreciate it.

actually i'm using new record pista cranks. and it sure as hell better give me a good chainline...

Unexpected from you, I though you'd be rocking the vintage angle.

I'll get in contact with Cliff later in the year, I still need to talk to him about getting the hubs slotted for bladed spokes too.

that's an option when you order them. an extra twenty each hub, i think.

oh and i'm sick of all that old shit. keeps breaking... ;)

20 per hub isn't too bad.

Are you a little bitter about your sherrifs?

as far as I know, lacing would be fine if the hubs are forged and not machined.

Why's that?

Just a little reminder of that Condor/Richard James custom bike...

They don't need to be slotted for things like CX-Rays, in case you weren't aware. There's plenty of room.

if you can find cx-rays or similar, online for anything less than rip-off prices I will be surprised

Depending on the amount you need i.e. if it's not convenient to get boxes of 20, there's always the starbike shop - the people that do the weight weenies site.

I'm drooling at this as much as the hubs.... Damn. And it'll never be seen once it's assembled. Only you will know.

you get a shiny silver sticker with it, so you can mark your frame for interested insiders.
yum yum
