I know it might not be as good or as fancy or as expensive as some of your bikes but I just got new wheels for it today and I'm proud!

Easy, the fulcrums only come out at night.

More interestingly, let us know what difference it makes to the ride - there's a few Taliban 3 riders on here.

Just going out for a ride now, I'll let you know if I feel any difference

Nice wheels jazloc.....the 2012 fulcrum racing 7's. Had my eye on them for my T3 as well.

Be great to know what you think of them.

Just back in from a ride with them, I can tell you a few things:

They're really quiet, when coasting there is just a gentle click which is nice.
I can get up to speed quicker and hold it easier too, when coasting the bike doesn't slow down nearly as fast as the stock wheels did.
Went over some really rough potholes which would have whacked my stock wheels out of true, these are still very straight

Jazloc .... What did you use to swap the cassette .... I know nothing of bike mechanics,but need to learn

I just took it to my LBS and he did it for free.

Looks wells. Be proud and loud or in the case of the new wheels proud and quiet with just a gentle click

Red tyres are coming in the mail tomorrow so there will be an updated pic soon!

 

[avsd]

Now you are going to spoil that understated classic look . I am sure there is a rule about coloured tyres

Looking good Jaz.
Glad to see and hear you are enjoying blinging up the bike and of course, riding it.
