seeing stars

i’ve ridden campagnolo c-record “sheriff star” hubs for several years. they’re bicycle wheel hubs, specifically made for riding on indoor velodrome tracks. i know that there’s lots of info on the web about how they’re not particularly reliable for the road, but i always thought that if they could hold up to the strains of the velodrome, they’d last on the road. plus, i mean… campy stuff’s the best, right? i figured if i rode them carefully, didn’t do stupid tricks on them or bunny hop over every curb, that they’d last. i’ve been proven wrong.
