Black ones are more pricey, so it's prob just to justify that.

I imagine its just that customers generally want brass, and they can charge more for alu, doubt they ship differently to them.

"careful/cautious" was me being uncharacteristically nice, you still fall into the category.GW I'm 80kg, not that careful, my revs are fine.
even if I was 60kg I'd find them too light/unreliable for most of the riding I do.

Yeah but it's well known that you are a riding God, neither I nor the rest of us can compare

hmm, cheers for the info everyone, sounds like comp = sensible (esp considering my wheel building talent or lack of), just wanted to shed weight elsewhere now I've decided I need a sturdier rim.

Supercomps?

super pricey
well maybe not super but not many deals to be had and only 30g saving compared to 60g revs (and you can get revs almost as cheap as comps)

Starbike.com? €0.95 each, same as Revs, and they sent me 10 spare Revs.

sdeals - way cheaper.
IIRC their lighter ACI spokes are in between revs and comps (like supercomps?)

cheers for the links guys, did'nt know about either of those places.
hmm sdeal's ACIs are 14/17/14 which according to sheldon = 2/1.4/2 slimmer than revs in the middle.Posted 9 months ago #
