Brians frame is finishing up nicely, but I wanted a break from the filing and sanding so I decided to build Devins front wheel. Kinlin TB25 rim with an E.L.F. hub and CX-RAY spokes. 594gms. and quite stiff.
They won't help me go faster, but I do love the look of those bladed spokes. I think the sticker on the rims will probably come off. It looks really good neal. The Rear should weigh less than 800 grams I'd think. Sub-1400 is just fine. That is 350 or so grams less than the Edge wheels I sold. And I won't be as sad if a rim goes south during a race either.
