you mean with the new hadley rim and hadley spokes?mtnbkr4235 said:Never had to touch my hadleys so far, and Ive got another hadley wheel coming next week
Of course, and to confuse people to think that I dont have them they are labelled "DTSwiss" and "RhynoliteXL" that way I can test them without being out in the open and having it be obvious to people.WestCoastHucker said:you mean with the new hadley rim and hadley spokes?

if they were so eco-friendly, they'd only have one color option: polished. Anodizing and dye = mucho chemicals....scurban said:I'd go with king for eco reasons, but thats just me, otherwise you can't go wrong with either

The only reason they are doing this limited run of pink is for the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and they are giving some of the proceeds to them.BMXman said:I use Hadleys because they are a bit more versatile and a bit cheaper....all the quality of Kings but a little cheaper and available with more options besides silly coloring.....D
