New from Rene Herse: Self Truing Wheels
 

Ah yes this day again

I hear that they only work in the northern hemisphere. South on the equator, they become “self-loosening” due to the coriolis effect.

It does miss something with the comments turned off...

Hoorah for Jan Heine who has picked up a torch left by Sheldon Brown and the advertisement copywriters of Velo News.

The comments were the best part.

V-O was in on the act this morning, too:

Was forwarded the Herse email, did not even open it.

We're you too busy yelling at the neighborhood kids to get off your lawn?

What? You don't believe a handlebar bag the size of an airline carry on is more aerodynamic than no bag? Or fenders on 42 mm tired bikes aren't more aerodynamic than 25 mm tired bikes?

But what if someone hacks into the motors on the spokes remotely and untrues them while you're riding? I don't trust this newfangled nanotech.

For $4.99/mo I have the bits to download to protect yourself from this.

I won't invest in tokenized hardware.

-Kurt

How about an NFT? I can give you the BF discount.

I don't go for those fungus token things.

-Kurt

They're non-fungusible.

Does that have something to do with this crabon friber I keep hearing about?

I bought those wheels and they made my bike slower. I’ve requested a refund.

You should have opted for the supple spokes.

You should be banned one full day for making me look.

:lol:

Try putting them on the other way.

That’s clearly going to make him go backwards.

Hang on a minute, lads. I've got a great idea.

I love that this is an imaginary product that you can actually buy; all proceeds go to the Rails to Trails Conservancy. Very spiffy. I should get a round tuit or three, I have bikes to assemble! Just as soon as I get around to it. :D
