aerospoke : the unboxing

After a tense-butt 9 week wait, a Spinergy Rev-X impulse buy and a few blown out tires, the Aerospoke finally arrived.

First impressions:
Lighter than I expected. Off the top of my head, I'd say it ways about the same as my rear Velocity Deep-V. The allen wrench bolt on hub is a bit odd at first, but I like it. I guess I'm used to my quick release and bolt on nuts. The actual ride is amazing. The wheel is solid and feels very aerodynamic.
Conclusion:
Definitely one boss piece of equipment. Compared to the Spinergy, I don't feel like the wheel will shatter or come untrue. Whereas, I think I would throw on the Spinergy if I was about to race somewhere.
