Someone Insisted to Purchase my CF Wheels

.....And as the nice gentleman I am, I gave him a go. This of course means I'm in need of a new strong-High-Performance-good-looking-much-better-than-I'll-ever-need set of bling wheels.


I'm making use of same rim for the rear but the lower profile Winium, same as the Campa Hyperon, for front. And. White Industries Hubs. I was original thinking of using DT 240s, but fell for the bling look of the Whites. Also it will make a stiffer wheel with 11% extra flange distance and 22% more flange diameter. I will of course also use silver spokes and brass washer on the spoke heads to make them even stronger an give that little extra bling. I added a picture of a set with black hubs and spokes just to give you an idea of the build.


There's a slight weight penalty on the hubs, but I'll take it in on lighter spokes and one lighter rim, so the weight will be approx the same 1295g as the others but with less rotational mass. I can see I've pictured the wrong rear hub. This one's the right one. It's also a few grams lighter :)
