  • jokes aside im going to look into a 42 h rim then

    If you find one, get a 28h hub and build it like a crows foot pattern but without the radial spokes.

  • ^Needs basket on front to carry hard as fuck soft cheese

  • And a basket. And moustache bars. And leather trim.

  • We all like a moustache bar with leather trim.

  • Crossing the road is hard in Cali, Americans drive like fucking cunt-sticks

    @Vegilame-o - Can you also pick me up some tubular cement, it's like $8 bucks there!!!

    well just thought u might have been actaully interested. nevermind then

  • I would like to be able to grow a moustache. Not on my face though.

  • On your bars?

  • Io. again.

  • I'm loving this

  • well just thought u might have been actaully interested. nevermind then

    Thanks for the kind offer but I'm good for carbon wheels this week.

    Be careful of import tax on a carbon wheel and for gods sake buy a clincher rim! Thye weigh extra grams and are extra stronger

  • I'm loving this

  • I'm finding it hard to carry on to be honest.

  • Carry on...

  • Am I right in thinking you want a fancypants wheel cos they look as rad as fuck?

    Seriously, putting a HED 3 on a commuting bike is bloody ridiculous (bold AND italic).

    You damage it, and then you'll cry.

    It's like putting a splitter on a Renault 5.

    Oh and Aerospokes are fucking crap in every respect from what I gather.

    Having said that I know someone who's selling a nicely beaten up (rat-bike patina, get me) white Aerospoke for cheap...

  • i think some bloke on here imports them? about £270?

  • thanks, how much does the guy want for the beaten up aerospoke?

  • I dunno. I'll ask now. It's straight and rolls really well, but a LOT of the white paint around the rim has come off. Looks really cool actually, for an Aerospoke. Failing that it could be resprayed.

  • He hasn't decided on a price yet.

  • let me know, thanks!

  • Avoid looking like a clueless hipster and get neither though, seriously. The beat up white one sounds good because you'd be riding hard ironically.

    If you want evidence on their durability there was a post dredged up not so long ago about pot holes, this particular one made mince meat of the spok. No link, cant be bothered to UTFS

  • Avoid looking like a clueless hipster and get neither though, seriously.

    ^ This. I can't help but smile when I see people 'rocking' spoks.

    The beat up white one sounds good because you'd be riding hard ironically.

    Ha, too true. It's cool in a self-loathing ironic hipster douchebag kind of way.

  • Damo, slow down you're killing.

  • Have been loving every second of this thread!.....

  • Why has no-one linked to this yet? http://www.lfgss.com/thread2530.html

    Damo, you're a funny fucker sometimes.
