FP USERS ARE GROWING IN NUMBER!

Fri, 11 Aug 2006 by Richard Neff

It seems like this wheelset is finally catching on with the masses. In my race last weekend I saw numerous FP60's in the transition area. And in just the past week I've had three different riders ask me about my carbon wheels.
I say that it's about time. This is truly a high-value wheelset at a moderate cost. I can't imagine another clincher-- even zipp's dimpled 404-- offering much more to a rider. If you put in the work you can fly with these shoes. The results don't lie:
I finished last Saturday's multisport race with the 2nd fastest bike split. Which, with the help of a solid 5k run, helped me wrangle 3rd overall. Now I wasn't exactly racing against a field of Olympians but that's the best I've ever done and I'm proud of it. Further more this is all the wheelset that you most likely will need. As I out rode those who shod their steeds with some HED 3's, a Blackwell 100 and even a brand new 909 set.
Finally on the new FP60's in the transition area I saw some revised decals. And I must say they made me a little jealous as the new decals look smokin' compared to mine. So now with performance and looks I expect these wheels to start to dominate the market.
But one piece of advice to Zipp. Everybody knows that you make these wheels. Why not put your name on them? I don't forsee a product dillution. Just call them Zipp Flashpoints, and keep the number designation for your premium set. Also how about a link from the Zipp website to this one.
