I'm gonna have to step in here and stop this speculation before it gets out of hand.
The relationship between Specialized/the Shaw boys sponsorship and their fathers position at Öhlins USA has absolutely NOTHING to do with the pictures posted here. I can certainly see where one would come to...
Any shop (or consumer for that matter) can service the wheels and hubs.
Our wheels get re-built to new rims by shops who are not established dealers all the time. That is why the directions for building our wheels are plainly listed on the website.
We obviously can't control every re-build...
First off, let me introduce myself. My name is Jeff and I am the Operations Manager for Industry Nine. There are some misconceptions and misinformation here that I would like to correct.
In regards to small parts sales: we sell repair parts (including spokes) through bike shops or direct to...
Saw them in Asheville last night with Black Mountain. Killer show.
Loud, but not as loud as Black Rebel Motorcycle Club was.
Wow, I've seen alot of "black" bands lately.

However there are a few dealers who we will send build kits to.
Feel free to e-mail us with any questions...
About the wheels:
Those were built for Cole Bangert for National Champs (they were not done in time) so he rode the same I9's he had been on all season.
To anyone familiar with our company, the fact that the wheels were not done in time will not come as any surprise :busted:
The only...
Disclaimer: I work for I9.
I can offer you a biased opinion on the above question.
Our wheels would likely be considerably stiffer and better tracking than any of the other options. Also, due to lighter spokes and no nipples, there is considerably less rotational mass, giving quicker...
The I9's aren't high tension. The wheels are built to 95-105 kgf.
It's just the aluminum's resistance to deflection that makes them "feel" high tension.
Yes! I was wondering when someone would mention TH. A brief visit to BC let me know that in the world of donut/coffee places; Tim Horton's reigns supreme!
Best coffee ever!
