As per title, lets see those Spin tri-spoke wheels :D

I'm looking for pictures and info on the Spin wheels, I have a set that I'm shortly to begin using, what are the Pros and cons of these wheels?

Where can one find replacement bearings? is it a standard Shimano freehub that they use? etc etc...
 
Mine are ceramic ones !

...but I don't have any bike to put it on (I am looking for a '96 GT LTS Thermoplastic) :

Re:

Interesting that you have slick tyres on your Spins, I was planning on fitting slicks to mine too, although I recall reading somewhere that running high pressures on these wheels is not recommended by some??? Any idea why it might be an issue?
 
Re:

IMHO

Tend to be slower than a traditional spoked wheel, but the coolness factor is ace. Downside is once out of true? what to do? Will never part with my set, and yes will post some pics soon. Bearings should not be a problem to acquire. Just get the number off of the side of the current ones and there you go.

I bought these with these tyres on, I never rode with these..

My project is to put big slick tyre on it, like Kojak, in 26x2.35, for a "supermotard" look ! :)

Re:

Wow discs yes yes yes.

Just beware of the original ones the hub bonding was prone to failure, they then came up the the new removable splined hub with the locking ring which was much better.
