    They could have made a few acceptions for the shoot, to tidy things up a bit; if you watch closely, when they make food on fast food commercials, they don’t use gloves either.

    I’m just throwing this out of thin air though, I have no idea.

    it said to keep contaminants down, I think they mostly mean like old resin and stuff u can see not a fingerprint dumbass, I am sure hot ass resin can take care of that

    … I didn’t put liv,live or liv anywhere in my comment and so I’m not really sure what you’re saying. I don’t quite know why I’m answering, but it’s probably boredom. They have top of the line wheels and they have entry level wheels. If you want cheap wheels then buy cheap wheels. If you want to make your own wheels then make them and post a video response as to how you made them and more importantly take a video of you going downhill at 50mph on the wheels you made. I’d love to see it.

    how do you spell liv, live or liv. well? don’t tell me i don’t know how to spell. answer the question? …ya cant. as for the operation here its all state art high tech and thats all it is. got the money, fine pay for the wheel thats is top line but hardly no one else can afford. i wish i had the money to buy a wheel like one of these but i do not. not even close. it seams to me they go out of their way to make a top line wheel when they could cut the steps in half and with less machinery.

    Okay “master of composites technology” who can’t spell to save their life. Composites are very complex materials to work with. I only took several classes on the stuff and I don’t claim to be an expert, but I did not see one extraneous step in this video.

    LOL if you’re going to leave the “jack ass” comment at least have the courtesy to leave mine for the rest of the public to decide for themselves…
    now, what i said was: “”this is how our mexican slave laborers make our overly priced bike wheels” is what this video should be called.” looks like someone has a guilty conscience…

    Your wheels would be more desirable if you would stop clear-coating on your obnoxious advertising.

    They’re actually manufacturing the wheel. You and I can build wheels from parts and do a good job, but honestly even with all my years of wheel truing and building, my wheels don’t turn out as nice as the Eastons. These guys get them dead on with the ear tuning, something I’m not too good at. The prices for the Eastons have shot up over the years so I’m with you. about building up your own wheels, but even parts like rims, quality spokes and hubs cost quite a bit these days.

    they make wheels like this to scare you from making your own. i did not know that carbon fiber had to go through so much processes to make something, i bet it dont and i bet i could build a wheel just as good and with nothing but my hands. its all a bunch of bull shit to scare people who aint got any money.
