Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

It's a fine looking bike, but a chain would be good.

Don't like it... Exactly how "cheapish" are we talking about?

349$ for black or white
379$ for polished
More info: http://aventonbikes.com/track/
Only that it comes with Alu fork.
This probably is where you can get it: http://www.aventonbikeskorea.com/main/index
I red somewhere that they are avaliable from citygrounds.com too. Prices are exactly like the ones I listed above.

Someone get the hell on this ZIPP 3000, has to be amongst the bext HHSB wheels

'nuff said

Zipp's are great but tub's really put me off

Zipp 3000 is such a beautiful wheel especially for a tight steel track frame!

doesn't look too bad for 300 eur, that fork isnt totally awful

Tubs are fine!

i dont like the idea of tubs neither.

tubs are fine, just expensive inner tubes

HHSB to the bone, but ugly as sin...

Rideden them?
I've done a fair few city miles and 5 longer rides with a tubular front, no problems at all.

Head to the tubs thread to discover they're not as bad as they seem, if Indra can ride them anyone can

^^ isn't that the nature of punctures though?

I mean, they're not a problem until they happen.

:]

Carry a spare tub and/or some sealant.

If you're riding sealed tubs the chances of you getting a puncture are considerably lower anyway.

I know.

Its just the thought if getting a flat that I CBA with... too much hassle

But tim, changing a tub can take less time than a tight clincher.

...but costs 30 rather than 3 quid.

Yes unless you learn how to repair them :)

I'm with you on convenience though. It's different, but not so much worse than a clincher.

Yes unless you learn how to repair them :)

You have to be fucking kidding.

:D

I mean I wouldn't commute daily on them but I've considered a set for longer rides and track, then I'd definitely have to learn how to repair them myself :)

reposting cos I kinda miss this setup...
