IainW12, it's down to personal preference, some people like them, some people really don't. I've never ridden one so I can't comment.
For a carbon wheel they're really not that light, but those who ride them say they're really smooth. They have a bit of a reputation as a wheel for people who put aesthetics above performance, however if you like them then try one. You could waste a whole lifetime listening to bike snobs, decide what you feel is best. -

Right, here we go then. i know some of you will have fun with this, but hey let the hilarity commence.
I'm selling a 700c white front Aerospoke with a braking surface for a friend of mine, it has not been used much and is in great condition, runs very smoothly. He does not really use it, hence why he asked me to sell it. He's asking £SOLD. Collection from Hackney or Camden, or if you're very nice he or I can arrange to meet somewhere central.

Cheers,

Not my item, but they're decals which have been lacquered over.
If you're asking because you want to remove them, you can do this easily with a stanley blade (picking lightly at the side of each letter, then pulling it off). There will be a faint outline left where the decal was, but it's not that bad. It can also be improved by re-lacquering.
Personally, I removed the white decals, ordered some black ones from Dolan (20 pounds, I think), placed them where the white ones were and re-lacquered. lovely job!
You can't however remove the Alpina logo from the forks as it's a done using a different process to the frame.

Richardsow, I've got a track champ with the same forks and you can't drill them as there's a structural pin that goes through where you would drill.
Luckily my steerer tube hadn't been cut so Dolan kindly swapped the forks for drilled ones (very nice and helpful people). That doesn't help too much in this case, but to be honest, the Alpina forks and also the upgraded Wing TT forks are pretty common second hand so you could pick some drilled ones up quite cheaply if you did want a brake for the road.
Totally worth doing, as if the pre-cursa is anywhere as nice to ride as my Track-champ you'll love it!Good luck with the sale, Walkingmonkey777!
