Very nice. And color coordinated too.

Let me know how they ride...or let me feel how they ride, either way.

gorgeous, pugzie! i just got a new wheelset with those same rims. my hubs aren't nearly as blingalicious as yours , but i really dig 'em. i finally know what people are talking about when they say "flexy" and "stiff" in regards to their rims. These things are stiff and strong and i'm really glad neil turned me on to them. you're gonna love 'em!

Hey pugz, what's a ballpark on the cost of those bad boys?

And I don't know which is worse, the fact that this isn't the first time Ive seen this .gif ...

Around $600, being part of the Adrenaline discount program really helped a lot.

You'll catch some flack for the racket those hubs will generate ("angry hornets" is one of my faves), but that's just engagement envy talking. I have Hadley's on both my full suspension rigs, and wouldn't trade for anything. Bet you'll feel the same. Nice wheels

I don't remember, I never really pay attention to weight since I'm so big it never really enters my mind

I see your weight-loss challenge winnings have gone to good use!

Very nice wheels, Pugz. I'm a big fan of the gold bling myself. Got my eye on a gold Hope stem as part of my next upgrade.

Hadleys! Nice!

I recently destroyed my stock rear hub on the Enduro SL, replaced it with a Hadley (10mm thru-axle too!). It's been awesome. No pics, but it's red to match the front hub on my ride (25mm t-a, Spesh). I really like the Hadley, and I can definitely feel a difference in stiffness with the rear t-a.

And of course the best part is the sound!
