This is a Shimano cassette taken through the spokes. We were talking the other day about how Flash-Point is perceived in the market. Here are some thoughts:
An entry wheel for tri and TT athletes just starting in the sport and wishing to gain from a true aero wheel design?.
An all round high-end recreational wheel for those team rides around the neighborhood and beyond?.
The wheel of choice for cross State and century riders, where they will benefit from the sidewall flex and the vibration dampening technologies.?
We are seeing quite a few visitors from Velonews coming to the site.
BTW have you seen the March 2007 issue of Bicycling, page 96? There is a wheel to wheel comparison of Mavic's Cosmic Carbone SL permium, Hed's Jet and the Flash-Point 60. I think FP showed the other wheels the way in terms of price, aero performance and value. FP was a little heavier - but hey you can't have everything in this world!
I can't wait to get new folks blogging - need to prod the web guy.
