Stoopid Marchesini Question

So those clear stickies over the "Marchesini Forged" labels on the "S" model wheels-- are they merely protective tape or is that the Marchesini label itself? In other words, if I peel off the clear stickie, will there be a blank space or will the Marchesini Forged labelling still be there? Sometimes it's better to ask first... On the cast Marchesinis, the labels are
definitely silkscreened on, so I wondered why go cheap on the forged units?

I have three sets of cast Marchesinis and it's just a cheap sticker. Peal it off and it's gone.

I hope you're kidding about that. Warranty wheel stickers?

The stickers are cheap on eBay. I don't think it would be worth the hassle to pursue the warranty.

i dont think it'd be worth the ridicule from the shop to pursue it.anyway, enjoy the weight loss- as its unsprung, it'll be the equivalent of 4 stickers-EACH END!
No need to buy cabon fibre wheels now!
Agree, you'd think the 'better' wheels would have stickers that stick.
