does the print on the rear hub really got the wrong direction?

I always thought font should be facing forward

bottom of lettering towards the back

correct me if im wrong.

Does it really matter?

It only annoys the morons in the porn thread.

i meant to quote this one:

not that light when you consider its got no pedals and a mega weenie post/saddle?

^No its not that light but you could easily shave off a good chunk of weight if you swapped the wheels out for crabon or even archetypes with lighter hubs and a lower spoke count. The rest of the component selection could also be a lot more weenie for about the same sort of money. In fact pretty much the only part I would keep would be the saddle.

I would go to the Cinelli Bolt in that case, better geometry than the Dosnoventa from far.

Not sure if ridiculously steep ST limiting your saddle position count as better.

It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine. - YouTube

bought it.

bought it.

Sumo repped

how meny $$$?

YES BROOOOOOOOo!!!!

Fuck. I wish I had the money for that.

have we had this already? check the DT...

We should organise a pink HHSB ride, or better yet some sort of elite Pink HHSB illuminati.

^Horrendous

Frame deserves better for sure.

Well but in terms of clearances the Dosnoventa's are a mess. But i believe that the factor is only the color pink so whateva.

given TM's stable and ex-'s there's a reason he still craveth a mash. its a fucking great bike if you can get your head around the hipster attributes.

With the greatest of respect to you Mancini. It really does matter.

Its how a wheel is meant to be built. It's a visual cue to installing say a front wheel in a rush. Or if you were relacing a wheel/hub with new spokes that you had your orientation right (through the valve hole you should be able to read the branding orientated as SKRTLUV said).

It's out of the norm to see branding orientated this way. So it's worth commenting on - especially as this isn't a flip-flop hub/wheel.

Love this bike.
