my bike : update

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.

New digs

Check out this graphic tee from Starfuckers, it's pretty cool.

I scoped this over @ HK fixed

New Inspiration

Freeman Transport

Scoped this news over @ SSFG!
Freeman Transport is still in the midst of completing its first run of frames that can seperate into two. This type of frame is perfect for the world traveler. The black one looks classsssssy..

Steve Macdonald

Steve Macdonald aka RamblinWorker is a legit artist you definitely need to check out for yourself. He works heavily in embroidery and graphic design.
...From the looks of it, he is fixed.

New 3Rensho+Makino @ SUPER MAKURI

This is most definitely one of the best 3Rensho's I've seen thus far.
But it's also a Makino? This double logo idea is throwing me off. Either way, it's jazzy.
Head over to SUPER MAKURI for the specs.

Get Lugged

Spotted this over @ HK Fixed! big ups Brian.
The Lug work that Bob Brown Cycles does is sick.
This bike should be hung on a wall.

my bike : update

Stopped down at the bike co op and picked up this Spinergy Rev-X. The hub is smooth and the wheel is perfectly true. Cleaned the brake walls and inside the blades, it was a mess. No worries, I won't be doing anything too extreme on this wheel considering its reputation. But alas, I own a piece of history.

New Eimei's @ SUPER MAKURI

These are some mint, barely used frames.
Jet over to SUPER MAKURI for the full scoop on the frame and some more screen grabs.
