0:23
christmas
0:24
memorable was it indeed excellent did
0:27

0:29
there's one thing missing but i'm sure
0:31
it will come up this week at some point
0:33
okay right so you weren't too
0:34
disappointed no i don't mind right how
0:36
many pigs in blankets have you got left
0:39
at zero oh they've all gone two right
0:41
now yeah turkey curry for me for the
0:43
rest of christmas
0:45
that's all right it's all right yes but
0:47
you know it tends to be anything don't
0:49
you tiresome after about four days but
0:52
we hope that you had a great day
0:53
yesterday i hope you didn't miss us too
0:55
much but we're back we've got a
0:56
fantastic price today today it's all
0:58
about wheels
0:59
what we got then we have halo vortex
1:02
wheels 27.5 boost 148 and 110 for the
1:06
front
1:08
uh 33 mil so i'm over there internal
1:10
width so good for
1:13
kind of probably best suited 2.6 is but
1:15
we'll do 2.4s as well they are
1:20
just very sound wheels nothing weird or
1:25
proprietary
1:26
they are three cross j ben spokes brass
1:29
nipples i know the black but that's
1:30
brass
1:31
uh double butted stainless steel spokes
1:34
um cartridge bearings drift them in
1:36
drift them back out replace them easy as
1:39
pie blue tape is ready to rock tubeless
1:43
yeah that's fantastic and we've got a
1:45
superdrive rear hub which they're using
1:47
a lot of their uh the wheels 120 points
1:49
of engagement three degrees so nice and
1:51
fast everybody wants to know what it
1:52
sounds like give it the right way
1:58
good that's nice isn't it not
2:00
a
2:02
high-pitched kind of affair but still
2:04
audible which is always useful instead
2:05
of using a bell and these are hand built
2:08
as well they are yeah fully hand built
2:09
hundred percent hand built by the lovely
2:11
guys at ice distribution
2:13
and uh even the front is kind of offset
2:16
yes so the rear is dramatically offset
2:19
so the spokes are slightly over to one
2:21
side which helps offset
2:23
um and balance out the tension of the
2:25
spokes and
2:27
it's not just left at that so the spokes
2:30
and the rims rather the wall of them is
2:33
tuned so it's got the same amount of
2:36
weight on either side of the spoke bed
2:37
so this broader piece is thinner than
2:39
that shorter piece wow the same way
2:41
which helps with your wheelbarrows it
2:43
might be classic looking and classic
2:45
built but that's actually a bit of a
2:47
clever innovation and thought isn't it
2:49
yep six bolt yep six bolt rotors no
2:52
messing no nonsense you've probably got
2:54
those already
2:55
and it's even the front is even slightly
2:57
offset as well yep that's because we've
2:58
got the obviously the disc which makes
3:01
it that we do have a slight dish going
3:03
on in the front which is uh nice to see
3:06
but that also they haven't just stuck
3:07
that on an even rim it's still got the
3:09
same kind of offset
3:11
actual rim as the rear does unlike a lot
3:13
of modern wheels though they genuinely
3:15
have made the most of boost so the
3:17
flanges are set as wide as they can go
3:20
yeah not like a lot of some modern
3:21
wheels where they put the flanges in the
3:22
middle and there's loads of dead space
3:24
and what are you doing with boost you
3:25
know
3:26
make it wide that's the point of it so
3:28
just really good wheels and i think the
3:30
worth
3:31
roundabout just shy 500 quid for the
3:33
pair that's not a bad price to be giving
3:35
away on boxing day if if you're a little
