Title: Wheel Porn (well for me at least).
Post by: midschooljon on January 12, 2013, 05:54 PM: These arrived today and Im really pleased with them. They are an early set of Kovachi Wheels including first gen USA made Kovachi hubs. :smitten:

I know mid school isnt to everyones taste on here, but in terms of early mid school racing these wheels are pretty special. They are also the same wheels that the Brian Foster (team Cyclecraft) and other Kavachi sponsored rides rode between 90-93. I was looking for a set of Kovachi Wheels for my Cyclecraft build but never thought Id come across such an early set and in such good condition. They really are the perfect wheels for my build.

Like I said, they are not to everyones taste, but Im really pleased to have found a set so thought I would share. :daumenhoch:

Love those rims! They were so strong and the pearl coloured ARAYA decals always looked amazing in the sunlight. 8)
