Yikes

Submitted by Bamfs01 on 06/15/2012.

90 inches for sprinting? That steerer and seat post height? There's so much going on here that I can't tell if it's even possible to make that thing fit you.

Yes. There were 1-2 model years of those Hed.3's that had problems with the bearing shims coming lose. I had the same issue, sent it back to Hed and they sent me out a brand new wheel, no questions asked. As for warping? You can damn near drive over one of those wheels and not have it come out of true.

And I thought Molly Ringwald Looked Pretty in Pink

Submitted by Steel Lugged on 07/28/2006.

I LOVE the pink. Don't change a thing on this girl. How does she ride? Like a classy lady, she looks incredibly stiff and unforgiving.

stiffy

Submitted by melgart on 08/07/2006.

the bike rides really stiff (fatty bottom bracket) which is exactly how it needs to be on the track for me. when i ride it, it feels like it was made for my body -- an extension of my body. feels great!

"never ridden on the road."hahaha, If you ever dare take that out on the streets of SF I think you would stop traffic. I love the bike and wheelsets but the bubble gum color is my favorite part.

whack

Submitted by melgart on 06/02/2006.

yeah, an unusual geometry, but rides so smooth and stable at speed, it'd incredible. took me about 1-2 weeks to get "used" to it from the previous steel Bianchi Pista. still can't do wheelies on it tho -- working on it.

Submitted by cabbagerwsb on 07/05/2006.

pretty gum on the bottom of my shoe...
