Anyone have friends at DT Swiss? Tell them we need these silver hubs!

[slowpoke]

Prova in Australia made a tribute bike for Damion Drapac, and Superbe Velo Service outside Melbourne custom polished these amazing silver 240s hubs

DT is most definitely an OE focused company. If you want 5000 sets, drop them a line.

Silver bike parts feel like sports cars with 3 pedals. People always claim they really want them but the sales numbers rarely back up the perceived demand.

As someone trying to piece together silver parts for an incoming Zukas, this hits me right in the feels. Its so frustrating.

And the new 12-speed dura ace looks like a ****ing darth vader space ship

There are other really good options for nice silver hubs, Chris King and White Industries are both great.

DT Swiss 240 hubs are superior to those, however.

Reliability, compatibility, design, durability

I always wanted a set of silver DTs, and if I had a bench top buffer, I most likely would.

$52.99

I am sure fellow Paceliners would help to recover the cost

And, re Chris King, if you’re using Campy you’re SOL.
