I've done both - sharpie on black spokes doesn't work very well, though I suspect you'd be looking at silver. I found pinching while tightening to be pretty imprecise, though I'm sure experience helps. Again, prolly moot for your hubs, but for my money and ease of use, I'll happily pay the premium in the future.
Besides, bladed spokes are *way* faster.

Very nice ride yesterday, beautiful day. 42 miles after work. Traffic was very busy but only one or two idiots. Going to miss that.

Maybe, but recall I was a second year medical student who had to be sharp and learn too much info in too little time. The beer might have been a barrier.

Find another team to root for. Have you seen what the NY Giants and NY Jets have done the last couple decades?

Please answer the question. Are you in the studio making an album of your live performance?

I was away for their first two games so saw none of them. They look terrible. And I learned last night that they lost Brandon Graham for the season in one of the first two games. That's certainly not going to help.

I thought it obvious, but for lay people who don't get it--in order for musicians to be ready to perform to the public when the masses are ready to hear Christmas music, they have to practice the music earlier in the year. It's the way things go.

So I am shopping for aluminum rim wheels to go with the new Habanero build. I have a message out to Psimet, but he seems kinda busy. I am also looking at Bicycle Wheel Warehouse, they have some decent offerings at my budget.
Anyone have experience with BWW? I am too lazy to search and to scared to ask in the 41.
edit: search shows some reviews are really good and some not-so-good. Pretty much par for the course.
