If you ever want to punch a baby...

Just decide to change the shifter cables in your SRAM shifters.  Holy shit, fuck these things.

Mad Fiber Wheel Review

One of the shops reps started repping for Mad Fiber, and Isaac's response was "demo me."  So there was a Demo set kicking around, and I just had to try them.

To start, Mad Fiber claims that they're the second coming of the sweet baby Jesus for road wheels.  Their philosophy it to take all of the individual parts of the wheel (rim, spokes, nipples) and just make everything one part.  The cool part is that they mold everything together, and tension is applied by pulling the spokes away from the center of the hub until they're in tension.  Ideally, they will never go out of true, and you never have to true them, partly because you can't.
