so much hatred on this page! hi haters

Nice bike.. i just got a concept frameset as well, i'm sure a lot of people did since bianchi shipped out the last of there 08's.

I'm actually feeling the rearospoke. Aerospokes aren't as bad as the haters say, i've owned a front one, it actually rides pretty good.

People are hating on this

Submitted by wuchan on 12/16/2008.

People are hating on this because it has to be the trendiest bike on velospace. The concept is only OK, not a great frame. It's the same as every other mass produced alum track frame out there. Aerospoke is the trendiest wheel out because the hipsters think it is cool. The truth is for the amount of money people spend on average alum (concept, fuji pro, leader, etc...) frames and aerospokes they could have had a custom steel frame and wheelset made that weighs far less and is of better quality. The people out there rolling around on fixies only care id it looks cool and weather or not they have the same components as all their buddies.

name one hand built steel frame that would cost less that that frame and rear wheel idiot.

False.

Submitted by Tbirdbassist on 12/17/2008.

You checked the price of a CUSTOM steel frame lately there buddy?

Take the cost of cranks, stem, saddle, bars, pedals, etc, etc and tack on about 1000+ for a CUSTOM steel frame and another 400-your hearts desire for a "better quality" lighter wheelset on your fucking STREET ride.

This dude has less than 2 grand in his build (at my quick sum up, about 1500-1600) make sure you know what your talking about next time.

AH GOD THIS IS LIKE BIKEFORUMS IM GETTING-TFO.

This is why I gave up on people, let the idiots continue to be idiots and they'll kill themselves off eventually.

Bomber pro (spirit keirin w/suginoBB and hatta swan headset) = 1500
kalavinka (spirit keirin w/dura ace BB and hatta swan headset) = 1350

both are direct quotes from the builders (in japanese) converted to USD using today's exchange rate of 88.97en to USD.

A total custom 100% NJS certified(yes it does not matter but douchebags jock it) bike should cost no more than 250,000円 or 2800. A year ago it would have been about 2100 but the USD is fucked right now.

"AH GOD THIS IS LIKE BIKEFORUMS IM GETTING-TFO." Do your research before running your wana-be guru mouth.

Submitted by Tbirdbassist on 12/18/2008.

I definitely don't think I'm a guru, ass. And if this page isn't like some bullshit from BFSSFG, I don't know what is.

Um... so all you did was show that a custom NJS build is way more than this guys Pista build... which is what I said to begin with.. You also didn't factor in the shipping from Japan... you also seemed to overlook the fact that this guys build is way less than 2800 USD, which I pointed out. :)

What was the point of your post?

And I personally don't think Keirin bikes are ideal for an everyday street ride. Thin wall steel/thin wall alu, same risks. Only thing with the the steel is that it's fixable without it's structural integrity greatly decreased.

Shipping from

Shipping from japan............
Take a once in a lifetime trip to japan and while you are here buy a bike. Shipping home = 0. You are allowed two pieces of checked luggage. But amateurs who don't travel with their bikes wouldn't think about this option.

Arrospok techincally is only

Submitted by Tbirdbassist on 12/14/2008.

Arrospok technically is only about 1.5/1.8? lbs heavier than a rear Ellipse. Having rocked an Arrospok on an Alu frame this bike is still probably barely tipping 20lbs.

Weight doesn't matter riding in the street.

Singletooth is a fucking retard who really can't judge anyone, all of his bikes are pretty jank minus the GT. Especially that Cannondale. Loads of FAIL on that one.
