Hmmmm, we have some on order but have only received the three spoke varieties- which are quite nice. If they are the same level of quality as the three spoke I think it will be quite nice.

Thanks Tom, I spotted them at R & A for $699, which with the current strength of the pound means that's a very good deal and since my LBS can't get me any Campag, clincher discs before IM Brazil that looks to be the business. Unless you know of better.

I know we all seem to harp on the Renn disc, but seing as it's $300 cheaper, why not go for that? Is it tougher to get in the UK?

---

_______________________________________________

It's more expensive an the X lab here, is not available for Campag and ,unless I am mistaken does not come in clincher form with an ali braking surface.

---

"How bad can it be?" - SimpleS

yes, it comes with aluminium braking surface clincher. Frank was working on the campy version last year, and so it should be available now...I think it was last year in december or thereabout...
email them...at $400, it's a great deal...and if cost is not an option, well, it's a great deal too, because it's a great wheel

Francois, you and John are both right. I have just been on the site and seen the clincher, however it says that the Campag version is expected in Spring of 2004.

It is available in the UK, but is less than $50 cheper than the X lab.

I will e mail Frank and see about the status of the Campag version.

in the worst case, you can use a shimano disc with a compatible cassette (shimano body, but 10 speed). works fine.

Thanks for the info, I'm off to bed now as I have a 27k tt tomorrow morning when I will be trying my friend 's (UK gear muncher) Corima disc in what promises to be very windy conditions and then a 10k road race with 2000 other people! Enjoy your day people.

I would go with Renn. I sent an xlab back to nytro because I thought it was junk. Poor craftsmanship and hubs. From what i hear, no rim tape needed for Renn. I would personally go with those that support and give advise, and that is why I would go with Renn.

Francois, Frank got back to me within the hour(!) and informed me that the Campag option should be ready to ship in the first/second week in April. So once he advises of a time to ring I will place the order.

It had better be good or I'll be coming to you for a refund, but not on the bike judging by your times ;-)

p.s. France are looking good for the 6 nations this year!

Yes? What did you mean Shaun by quoting me?

"How bad can it be?" - SimpleS

Sorry - screwed up - should have read "going to be a green year - Irish to win 6 Nations and tripple crown"

not possible...France is the only team left that can make the grand chelem.
Currently leading Scottland 31-0...
meaning grande finale next week in Paris against England.

I understood it would boil down to points difference assuming the French lost to the English next week - however with (soon to be) win and large points would favour the French?

Boy Shaun you must have over done it on Paddy's day ( you know the Irish national saint that came from Wales!) only France can do the Grand slam now. As Francois so rightly said it's the Grand finale against England on Saturday, I hope we can win to avoid the Grand Slam occuring, although I can't see it. Still we're theWorld Cup holders in case you forgot! '-)

If France wins, they take it with the grand slam (not chelem, which is french...sorry).
If England wins and Ireland wins (likely against Scottland) then for Ireland to win, they need to win by at least 42pts to catch england and 18pts to make up for England's deficit to France...
So basically for Ireland to win, you need to see England just beat France by 18pts, and then see Ireland beat the scots, by 60pts...

in short, Ireland ain't gonna take it!

dude, in Texas (where I live now) all we get is US Sports...
although when living in Australia, we did get the Super 12.

Vancouver is marginally better - love it here but really miss the rugby....just not into the whole football thing...where I come from that's played with a round ball anyways...
