rims are a good investment, wen i still had my shitty rims on my MTB i folded the back wheel and the de-railer twisted and stuck thou the wheel and snapped about 10 spokes. but now i dot my good rims iv landed backwheel first on a pointy rock with a flat tyre goin flat out and it didnt even buckle or dent.

word up.
i run a chrome sun big city (triple wall) on the back with black spokes and a odyssey hazard cassette (13 tooth), and a chrome odyssey hazard lite (double wall) with black spokes and a WHITE hazard hub, looks bling as.
ben you get what you pay for, if you buy a shit hub it will brake. a good hub is a sealed bearing one, youd need an odyssey vandero or a hazard hub on the front, they run smooth as and are definently worth the money, and as i said in my email, i can only get top of the line stuff for cheap, so its worth considering unless you want your cones to fuc* up again. trust me man, i know what im talking about.

yeh ill probably get it,what will it cost me?

10th May 2004, 08:32 PM
90 for odyssey hazard lite rim, 90 for a vandero hub, not sure about a hazard hub, itll be around 90 though. plus more if you want spokes and wheel build

listen to this morose mother****er here, sounds like somebody shit in his cereal.
obviously dilligaf is a retard and speaks before he researches.

odyssey hazard lites availablee for $90.75 + postage, and probably + tax, and THEY DONT SELL THEM IN 36 spokes, they only get such a good price because they probably have 50 rims sitting in the warehouse, besides, their vandero hubs are $100.
wanna argue some more, and tell me i dont know what im talking about, *****??
