Aug 16, 2004 Thread starter #3 Qube Mechanical Jan 17, 2004 20 Yes it's the specialized Tarmac frame ;-). I'm thinking about to make my own carbon rim, but I have no idea what mold material i have to use. http://www.carbonsports.de/Produkte/Lightweight/Geschichte/Werkstatt.jpg (makers of the "lightweight wheels") looks like the rim in the back is alloy?? does it matter which alloy?
