Bought a set of V9 hubbed 202s that showed up as the V8 hubbed version. Waiting on a reply from the vendor before I click the angry button on PayPal.

Zipp hubs are sh*t anyway, rebuild them with some White Industries.

The V9 hubs are fine for my needs in these particular wheels. I was happy to deal with their shortcomings, the exploding V8 hubs, not so much.. I'm just frustrated that Iwasn't sent what I payed for and would rather send them back and buy different / hand built wheels etc with the money spent.

^^ Frame up that rainbow jersey! Put it under glass.

Another pair of Scwhalbe One clinchers, 24c - 200g and 202g. I'm loving these.

My first pair in mid-2014 weighed-in at 207g and 210g. In mid-2016, another set was 219g and 232g. Looks like I may note have recorded the others, but it looks like it's 2-1 in favor of the 200-210g range, which makes me smile! :D

Just got a hoody and some socks from Hanseeno. Sweet stuff, and came with a signed card - nice touch :-)
