I can get hubs and hoops laced for 5 bucks plus parts, through the crew. I'll look into it.

But if I get a fantastic deal on an aero or tri. I'm doin it dood
 
Anything that isn't either carbon or you can lace up is a bad idea. Aerospokes are like composite or something (plastic) so they are heavy, and if they come out of true you can't fix it. Plus aerospokes are meant just to be hip, nothing else. At least hed3's are light, and decently purpose-built.

I'll look so funny with a Hed 3. Especially with a Stemroller...

I need a new front wheel dood... I want something either really deep like a zipp or an odd number of spokes (not the spinnergy uggglllyyyy). Id like some sort of carbon front wheel

zipp wheels are sexual. the shop i work at is a zipp dealer.

Yeah, if you can get an Aerospoke for cheap you'll probably be able to resell it for way more. I know a dude who paid $250+ for each of his.

Nah dood. It looks a lot better in person. Getting rid of the purple chain and see if I can trade it for a green one if not ill trade it for a normal one.

Also I'm getting some Saglife Straps (goodluck finding em.. especially in black,) All City Double Clips, and a set of Odysseys for $40

The set up was claimed to have only been ridden for less than 15 miles. Soo.. SCORE
I can probably part the whole setup and get some profit if I end up not liking em.. but that isn't likely
