I haven't seen that shade of purple since I accidentally swallowed a sheet of "Cambodian Slamdunk" in my senior year of high school......

These Pirelli Scorpion Pro FIM's are very stiff. Just mangled my hands trying to get the rim locks and UHD tube in there... But it looks sweet.

These photos are poor due to the lack of lighting in my garage. I will be installing decals tomorrow and taking nice photos outside!!

Are you just sitting in your garage staring at it? Because I would, I can't even stop staring at the pics. I think I'm going to pass out... it's beautiful

So tell me BD, do those spoke skins go on after you lace up the wheel?

To quote a girl from my 11th grade health class, " if its made of glucose then why does it taste so salty?"

THANKS everybody! I promise to produce photos that do this bike justice, sometime this week. It has been a long journey of 8 months and I'm glad it's almost over.

So tell me BD, do those spoke skins go on after you lace up the wheel?

You can slide them on before, or after. Either way is just as easy.
They have a slit down the side that closes up nice and tight on it's own.
There is also the option of using a heat gun and permanently installing them as well.
$30 well spent... -BIG DAN
