Great thread plommer. They have their own kickstarter page. It looks like you can download your own graphics (artwork,logos animations) to the wheels?

First impression: special (like in a Special Olympics sense).

But I bet they sell some of those suckers.

Seems like a good idea. Hippie fuckers aren't visible enough at night.

 

[Matty]

Oh wow, a thousand bucks for a pair of these.

 

[bacon]

wow that's just a little steep.

 

[Mudcat]

Yeah I figured it must be a lot.

There is a slight disconnect in that people with money to throw around will try to impress people through cars - but in these days of fitness consciousness, I can see a little niche market for pricey, look-at-me bike tires.

 

[Matty]

Totally.

well that's pretty cool! Not something I would buy, but fun to look at! They should use those is things like "tour de france" it would be funner to watch IMO.
