Post by: rad_pitt on January 20, 2012, 11:55 AM: White graphites too :coolsmiley:
Title: Re: No one tempted by the clear peregrine mags then?
Post by: griff on January 20, 2012, 11:58 AM: didn't think they did graphites in other colours than 'graphite'
aren't they just white mags with gold hubs?
Title: Re: No one tempted by the clear peregrine mags then?
Post by: pickle on January 20, 2012, 12:00 PM: Graphites were only ever in black, they did however stick some annodised hubs on white :daumenhoch:

Post by: brettypeeps on January 20, 2012, 12:02 PM: $3000 :wtf: that is a lot of dosh for some wheels for a kids bike :idiot2:
Title: Re: No one tempted by the clear peregrine mags then?
Post by: rad_pitt on January 20, 2012, 12:03 PM: Graphites were also made in white. Factory riders had them custom made. Beyond rare.
Title: Re: No one tempted by the clear peregrine mags then?
Post by: pickle on January 20, 2012, 12:04 PM: Nope, they just had annodised hubs riveted into white tuffs.
Title: Re: No one tempted by the clear peregrine mags then?
Post by: kungfunky on January 20, 2012, 12:06 PM: I always thought that some sponsored riders had the gold hubs in white mags, I know only black were available to buy though.

As for the 3k mags, it doesn't matter how rare they are no wheels are worth that much right?

Must still be a rare wheel set - but there's no way I'd pay over the odds for a gold hub. As for those peregrines :uglystupid2:
Title: Re: No one tempted by the clear peregrine mags then?
Post by: lk_97 on January 20, 2012, 04:18 PM: You could just buy some graphite hub keyrings and put them on your normal tuff and buy a campy hub for a lot less, actually, I have a green tuff with no hub...
