Monterey Bay Racing Team member and friend Brad Orsburn has been having an eventful year. Due to an enexpected medical issue (not a bike crash), Brad will not be able to race this year, and probably will be off the bike for an extended period of time. 
As a result, Brad would like to sell his slightly used, 2008 Ridley Helium bicycle in size Medium. Brad is asking $3200 for the bike without wheels, however, if you'd like to negotiate the price with Brad, or if you'd like to ask Brad to sell the bike with one of his wheelsets (he has several), then please contact him. Considering the frameset by itself originally retailed for over $3000, it's a great price. To see the specific details of this bike, and for contact information with Brad, please see our "for sale" page.
I know that these wheels were ranked towards the bottom for aerodynamics, but I always thought they they were supposed to be fairly stout. This recall involves the front wheel, which may encounter spoke failure. Not good news for those of us who ride on the bumpy, pot-hole ridden roads around Monterey. Here's more info.
If you haven't heard of NingGs, you're not alone. However, if you're looking for a good carbon race wheelset, then you may be able to get a set of these wheels with a team discount. They're offering us a team discount on their all-carbon tubular, their carbon-aluminum clinchers, and their soon-to-be-released all carbon clinchers. They also can be made with a power tap hubset. The standard wheels come with DT-swiss spokes and DT 240 hubs (bomb-proof). If you'd like more information about the team discount, please contact Gregg. Also, if you'd like to see a set of the Exos tubular wheels, Gregg has a set that you can see.
If you'd like more information on NineGs, you can find it on their website.
