It's possible, but it could just be a lighting hole. And how would the frame be up if there is not some portion of an axle going into the wheel. If it was a fixed axle and that was a bearing hole, the axle should come out the other end, which it isn't doing.

Someone is finally stepping up to combat the idea that everything should be pink :p

Now that you have gotten me thinking, that looks like one of 254's 2007 wheels, is it?

It's a teaser, so all the parts aren't necessarily shown.

I doubt it's just a lightening hole; if it was just there to save weight then it would have been triangulated like all the rest. However, the large round hole coupled with the large amount of aluminum left around the hole looks like it's there to support something. :)

It's just nitrile roughtop tread (which is only available in the color blue) from McMaster-Carr. It's on page 1219 if you're interested.

Looks like Pink is making the move from pneumatic wheels to something a little more... turnable.

Pink + Poof/Rawc, this will be epic. Correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't the Poofs/Rawc always used wedgetop tread, not nitrile roughtop?

We used roughtop last year.

I think he was talking about the rim and not the tread.
