zelig and zoom zoom know mine. I also like the SSR Comp, Anthracite. They weigh about 17 pounds and look the best with yellow as far as I can tell. Christmas time will be fun here as I have started a fund to make sure I get at least four presents under the tree.

We spent ages looking for something a bit different that would satisfy :
a) matching the titanium grey
b) not have thin spokes (wife's request)
c) not have thick spokes (wife's request #2)
In the end we went for these, (the wife actually spotted them) I think they are Italian made, but sold through a UK distributer - ManiaRacing. They do them in chrome finish also, and in 20" - not everyones cup of tea - but we like
