Red Alert to all the Hipsters reading this!!!
Arrospok, HED3 and Spinergy are all yesterday's news, this is apparently the new hip thing, LexCarbon monospoke. Now quickly, surf to Ebay to get yours before everyone else gets in on these.
In fact I must admit I first questioned whether this thing is even real or just a spoof but I guess it exists - since it is in teh Interwebz, right? But yeah, the technological innovations and progress the road cycling brings and feeds on seem to be pretty much limitless.
And apparently this thing costs about £1200. Convert that to your own currency and weep silently by yourself.
But wait, there's more. Apparently manufacturing of these was finished already in 2003 and there was a weight limit of how much they would carry safely.
But is this all just bullshit? Honestly, I cannot tell.
Bullshit or not I wouldn't fancy flying downhill knowing I'm only one carbon spoke away from a face to road interface! That's £1200 big ones I'll be saving for a titanium frame then! :-)
ReplyDeleteI see, so is true that this device have a manufacturing error, well looks like that now I know what kind of stuffs I have to aviod and what other I have to buy.
