Cooking with gas.

So...it dawned on me that there was some money in my paypal account left over from the wheel builds for Alien and aham. I had been wanting 2 things this winter. I scoured ebay and found and won one of them...

Powertap laced to a Zipp 404 tubular. Old model of both the powertap and the rim, but I got it for $610+$25 for shipping -10% for a coupon I had from Paypal....making it come in at my door for $575-ish.

I don't need the tubular rim and will relace this to a Niobium 30 rim. I will either sell the Zipp rim or put it on a cheap front hub and use it for TT's with a wheel cover on the rear. If I sell it I could possibly get $150-$200 for the rim. That would net me a powertap for $375. Not bad considering the model I wanted I could get on deal for $1,200 and this model sells new for over $800.

Now I am cooking with gas.
