Let me get this straight, You could Feel the SEXINESS as you rode it:bang: It should be shipped tomorrow or the next day 8-[
yeah, they just use normal nipples. they sit behind the threaded inserts that thread directly into the rim. a bit more work to build, but you get a seamless rim. DT gold alloy nipples would be what you want, but if you want stronger, you could go with natural brass and it would be gold-ish. wouldn't be the same as anodizing, but close. you get the frame yet?
Not yet, I just got the hubs in and need to have them built and a few more small parts $ brakes to buy then :bang::bang::bang:
+1 on the hadley axle. path should have them for around 30-35 bucks. I suppose you could always call up hadley too. I think they're in upland, which is a bit closer to you iirc. I don't see why they wouldn't have one to sell you.
that thing is gonna look sexy when its done. you gonna get a new fork for it? or stick with the 40? it won't match the new paint FWIW :lol:
