This Bike...

Submitted by gnarkill on 04/23/2008.

It is the most beautiful bike i ever have seen. I just had one question, what is the color called?

color

Submitted by chrisj on 05/09/2008.

I have no idea what the color is called. I basically sent Kalavinka a Jpg of a color of grey I had picked in photoshop.

Submitted by alexthorne on 03/27/2008.

HAHAHAHA! Holy shit, looking at this bike makes me insanely happy.

You definitley know what's up. Corima rear, shamal, grand mighty, superstar, fucking titanium cubic GIGAS! And the brand new Kalavinka isn't too shabby either!

Alot of people say this bike or that bike is their favorite bike on velospace. I'm pretty sure none of those people have seen your bike.

hed 3's can't flex. monocoque construction can't bend or flex. it'll just snap with enough force.

The cog / lockring assembly

Submitted by chrisj on 01/18/2008.

The cog / lockring assembly threads onto the main hub in a way that it does not stay put if you try to skid. To solve that you could either JB Weld it or drill / put 3-4 screws in to lock it in similar to how Andy/Fyxomatosis did on a similar wheel. I'm not sure if newer generation Corima wheels are this way still.

On the stiffness side, Its very stiff and I don't feel any flexing.
