:thumbup: :thumbup: I just received a package from Ted from Zero Gravity. In the package is a set of 2007 Zero Gravity titanium brakes and a t-shirt that says Ciamillo on the front and I signed up to be a crank tester and all I got was this lousy t-shirt on the back. Also included as a letter from Ted stating the project is not dead but unless he can really break new performance barriers that the cranks will not make it to market.

I'm glad Ted has a sense of humor and this does show the man is a class act! :beerchug:

Yep, I had a feeling Ted would surprise us all. Great job, can't wait to get my hands on them. I'll be able to do a comparison test with my AX Perseus :shock:

So now that all you lucky ones have extra sets of ZGs laying around, I can expect to see some deals posted on the For Sale board, right? :wink:

To Ted, "The Wolf" and the boys at Zero Gravity. Thank you! I am lost for words with this amazing gesture. The Tshirt will be worn with great pride :)

I sincerely hope you will continue to work on the crank project when you have the time.

I'd love to have a proto crankset as a paperweight for my desk at work. Maybe it didn't work out for bike purposes, but it sure is a nice piece of CNC eye candy!!! 8)

Nope- My second set will be used as enjoyed as much as my first pair. After the excellent customer service I have received on my first set (third year of running Zero g's) , I didn't think my opinion could be higher- I was wrong!

:D
This forum would be a better place if you had to know what you were talking about prior to posting. And if you took yourself less seriously.
