I bet it has a flux capacitor too.

It has to. Definitely looks like it'll go 88mph.

I just picked up these bad boys.. Can't wait to see how they ride. Deep V's are getting played out quick. I figured I'd try something different. They were cheap, my guess is they won't stay very true... But I'll report my findings. for 169$ I figured they are worth trying out.

[Erik]

Deep V's are the new RSs.

There, I said it.

[löwenbröke]

but it's truth rs's will always pwn....

And Deep V's are fucking great wheels no doubt.

The Vuleta's are nice wheels. I know 1 guy that runs them successfully.

Good to know, are the hubs on them decent? I know the cog it comes with is stamped crap. I'm going to put a surly cog on there I think.

Its just Formula hub's i believe. And yeah the cog and lockring should go.
Replace with Dura Ace or Surly. Or Euro Asia.

Side note.....

I finished up my bike and my girlfriends bike for the time being..
My bike is ecclectic to say the least. NOTHING matches. :D

Yeah well, remember that thread I started about cameras? I dont have one worth a shit. Sick of my Blackberry for pictures.

Mister Digitalwave.... Are you going to take my advice on the drop outs?

I just got new maxxis re-fuse tires, but next time i'm looking for an upgrade. David you got the vittorias right? I was about to get those but I was a little short on cash. So i ran outside to the car and when i came in some dude was at the register paying for them. I need 23's for my new frame, apparently 25s won't clear?

[Jand3rson]

Damn. I'm in love.

How soft are the Maxxis?
The Vittorias seem nice. Not sure how long they will last being skidded on but I ended up putting them on my girlfriends bike. I took the Kenda's. :down:

And yeah, 25's wont fit on my bike either man. Especially with my V's. I dont know anyone that could possible run 25's I dont think.
