What’s going on here. Has he found an ali-express supplier of hoods or is he bogarting a container full?

Good question. I haven’t found any ali-type hoods for campag, just checked again and there’s heaps for shimano and sram but nothing for campag at all.
He must be getting them from somewhere…

The sram copies are amazing. I’ve used a bunch.

practically it’s a shitty version of Affiliate Marketing

you get a single overpriced $100 tire in exchange for your useful parts that sell for $200 per pair, and get the privilege of the 15% “team discount” on a second tire?

So he’s just trying to branch out into exploiting Campy retrogrouches in addition to people that enjoy quesitonably-tubeless tires?

Yeah I got that. Was just wondering where he was getting his hoods from. Looks like they are out there!

We can laugh because he said Giant. If he had even said like Specialized it would have hit too close to home for the average steel Stumpjumper enthusiast.

the Giant hardtail from 1995 is gonna be pretty consistently nice

the Specialized models from 1995 are gonna be a mix of “oops mixed up the TT and DT to make this turd a fossil” and the most special MetalMatrixComposite weenie XC planing frames

by 2005 the Specialized frames are all turds or fossilized turds
