One week in
Tue, 18 Jan 2005 by Erik Barton
Have been riding the new wheels for a week now on the rollers. They feel pretty good. They are not quite as fast as my Zipp wheels but significntly better than any other wheel I have. Very good feeling actually. The only problem so far has been the rear hub has worked its way loose and to tighten it I will have to remove the cassette. There is a small set screw that holds the end cap against the bearing, but you can't get to it with the cassette on. Total mileage for the week was about 65.
