Corima X Mack Collabo
Corima X Mack collabo AKA Arrodynamic Crabon Hipster Wheel. One of a kind too, 'cos it's handbuilt by yours truly. Mack hub on Corima Aero 24h full carbon clincher rim with DT Swiss Revolution spokes. Took me ages to finish this but I'm quite happy how it turned out. Thanks to Konkeli for the rim and inspiration for the project.
And in case someone else is building with the same rim I used 574 ERD to calculate the spoke length, which is not what Corima officially tells you to use but you need to calculate some extra for the upside down nipples.

H+Son Website & Online Store

H+Son finally got their game up a notch with a proper website including a blog and a global webstore. Way to go. I guess it was about time now that the Velocity peeps down under are getting their copy (yes, this should debated...) of the H+Son Formation Face rim out.

Mavic NOS Rim Treasure Trove

If you're looking for some nice & pretty much impossible-to-find NOS clincher rims such as Mavic CPX 12, CPX 14, CPX 30 or MA40 CD, you might want to check out the brand new RetroNOS blog right here. His prices are pretty damn good too.

H+Son 650c w/ Gran Compe
Nice wheels for sale at Rene's blogshop:"When used with a 700c standard size fork, you will be able to spin the handlebars around, without the tyre hitting your down tube."
Very funny.
