I did check with my local community build place and the only time i can get there they have reserved for minor repairs. i guess right now wheel building is out.
No certainty I'll be passing, I might spend the cash but that's cause I like how smooth and fast they roll, the color options, the fact they're as fast 20 years later as they were when new and kind of like you, decking out the bike to be unique in my own fashion.

i dont see the need to get out the measuring sticks.... oh yeah, yall l are road bikers, lol.. my bad. lol roadies...
we are all in it together my friend. i just chose not to ride on roads with no shoulder
Actually only have 2 sets on my bikes, the other is my MTB which at this point I spend more time on, and if it weren't for the kids I wouldn't mind smokin one while I roll but they're not even old enough to discover the stuff on their own. I'm not into a lot, but I really like my bikes and I just like having the most me bike possible and part of that is cool hubs. Partly I'm a roadie and mostly a bike geek.
