Pics...
BIke setup... XTR/XO Juicy Carbons. Surly is a temporary frame, it'll be back to SS when my Titus Exogrid Ti 29 is ready!!!
Front wheel shot. If you look close towards the rim, the small white letters on the spokes spell out Industry Nine. That's right, they laser etch each spoke!
Mmmmmm.... Polished XTR cranks.....
Rear wheel close up with SRAM 990 cassette.
I posted an earlier write up of these wheels before I ordered them. Here's the follow up.
I was extreamly happy with the customer service that I recieved from I 9. The guys down there has answered every question I could think of prior to ordering my pair. They havetuned out to b everything I hoped for. They Spin up faster than my CK/Mustang combo did. They are a lot more laterally stiffer. I love the color and the attention to detail, (ie laser etched spokes!) These are truely top notch wheels. The color pallete is off the scale as well. One of my sponcered guys is thinking of a blue pewter hubbed, pink spoked set on Mustangs!
Rather than ship me my wheels, John from I 9 happened to be visiting relatives in the St Paul area, so he brought me wheels with him. I met him at a resteraunt and we ended up talking about wheels and shops in general for about an hour. He is a first rate guy, and one hell of a craftsman. The wheels are nothing short of art. If you have a special project you're working on, if you lie to have the best stuff, or if you simply appreciate attention to detail and performance, these wheels have it!
