Blind, illiterate and a fucking teetotaler. No wonder we were fucked at the Olympics.
Our cuntry has gone down the tube (since I left, of course).

God save the Queen!

Just lace another open pro in there imho

The CXP ride a little harsher (mine do with CX ray spokes anyway)

doh, i thought hippy blew up the first one :(

Observation Fail.

I recently had wheels built at CONdor.

IIRC building was £25/wheel, black DB spokes 50p/ea.

I think murtle got complete wheels from BETD, check with him.

CONdor offer their own version of the Goldtec, slightly different shape.

I went for DT Swiss RR1.2 on Goldtec in the end. 100g heavier than CXP33 but alledgedly stronger. I looked at those Condor-Goldtecs and there's nothing to choose other than the shape - they are the same price. BETD were a few quid cheaper but you have to add P&P. I went with Condor as I can get them quicker, and take 'em back if there's a problem.

I know I'm not that well up on all the diffent manufacturers, but they definitely had OpenPro stickers on them!

I'm going to keep the front wheel as a spare, but you can have the back one to break for spares if you want it. I'll PM you when the new wheels come through.

goldtec goldtec goldtec!

raa, raa, ra!

Ooooo! do Goldtec's come with a transvestite cheerleader? If you'd told me that, I'd have upgraded years ago!

murtle, that is the worst pic of a cheerleader I had never seen, did you do it on purpose?

...so it's new wheels time.

Why a new set of wheels !? You just need a new rim.

+1

no own pictures in the cheerleader thread guys, you already know how this work

Get another open pro, they're rather rather good.

ha! @ rik

I'm liking how the thread about my wheels has turned into a bad cheerleader discussion. It reminds me why I don't bother with other forums.

knock yourself's out

I've had a Goldtec running for years on and off-road on my fixed mtb.

Don't think I'd buy another one - it still runs smooth and everything, but those washers and allen bolts are shit.

What's a good replacement washer? Is there a nice stainless steel serrated one that will work (with the over-sized axle and allen bolt head)? Post me links and images, please - I'm feeling lazy.

just get the new bolts with the cap-washer thingy..

I drilled out some wicked coned washers with a knurled stainless steel insert that came from an old DMR hub.

but you won't be able to get those

They have captive washers now? Are they still made of cheese?

they seem ok, my front hub has them.

unless they've changed them again

Hmmm, don't believe you.
