Just delivered --- but bought a couple weeks ago --- (The disc -- not the Speshy tri spoke ) -- bought the matching 5 spoke too, but it is hung up somewhere in shipping

Gotta admit --- wheel is a tad porky compared to the other uber high end wheels , ---- but dang its pretty from a technical standpoint --- and not a darn thing wrong with Dura Ace cup and cone hubs ---
--- I'm a former experimental aircraft mechanic and the wheel is as pretty as anything ive seen on a 600 mph biz-jets control surface -- much nicer from an aesthetic standpoint from a buddy's Speshy S-Works MTB I had in the shop to compare to





1246 grams --- that's as steady as I could hold 'er while balancing on my gram scale -- track nuts and lockring still intact, this is the full ride




In short --- satisfies my "geek side" with real D-A hubs and awesome workmanship, ----- I'm thinking that the weight of this rig will be inconsequential for my uses --- its heavy but its also been used at the highest levels of the sport --
