Go to Midas, get a tube of Wheel Bearing Grease, R28 or a tube of Marine Grease R49. DO NOT BUY at Bike shop, they will rip the ears off your head.

until wheels are self propelled, there is no such thing as a fast wheel....

Surfer, go for the one that looks nice on your bike. they are both good. you wont be able to tell the diff.

just remember, all that power is wasted the minute the pads grabs the disk and locks it up... if you are on a downhill machine go Hayes or Formula. if you on a XC bike you dont need that much power

Nice bike Parra very very nice. Please look after it. one thing im interested in is the frame weight? And completed bike weight?

nice....i will sell my white porno scott for this thing

This is what you did wrong: The first time you inflate the thing, inflate all the way to 60psi. leave it like that overnight. next morning deflate to 35psi. Problem is, it probably never seated properly.. Go try it again, you will get it right.

Im looking at getting it a bit lighter, but to shed a Kg is now gonna cost 10k. and that will get me thrown out of my nice home and onto the street. There is lots of confusion bout the frame's weight, some shops say its 500gr more than the carbon one, i really dont think so. i think the frame is more like a KG more. It gets a bath after every ride cause it parks in the lounge(after many fights) its spare set of rims DtSwiss X430 with X370 hubs are for sale for 2k

The bar is a kcnc Bone, the stem is some unbranded100gr something all the red stuff are Aerozine things The wheels are the light build, just under 1400gr. Tires are foldups, non tubeless. no rim strips, tape only. Aerozine BB the pic was taken just after a bath it always gets home brown... 10kg 200gr on the digital scale at Olympic. Was told the frame is very light, but dont actually know the weight.

Some Titanium bolts, light weight cassete and BB Currently at 10.2kg Waiting for the Easton Carbon bar,stem and S.post
