Alright, I finally got the disposable camera developed, so I now have pictures of the new(ish) race wheels. Hehe, took the pictures almost 2 months ago! I have only used the wheels 3 or 4 times(once for a TT and then 2 or 3 times on the road b/c I couldn't find where my allen wrench went to switch out the break pads) I absolutely love them, but since they tubulars, they are race only wheels.


So Silver, this post is for you!

OHHHHHHH!!!!! wow!!!!! They look soooooooo FAST! :eek:

how much do they weigh? How do they feel?

Did you mount the tires? tubulars? hmmm....whole area that I know nothing about how it's done. I doubt that I'll ever get them, so no need to use up my remaining and fragile brainspace :rolleyes:

Aren't you selling that bike?

They are fast:-) I wish they weren't tubulars so I could ride them more often(ie super fast group rides,hehe)

I didn't mount tires- tubulars are a little bit out of my league! The BF works at the LBS and they did it for me,hehe- but one day I will learn.

They feel amazing, I love how they sound! When I TTed with them, there was a big headwind one direction and a slight crosswind the whole way, and it never really bothered me(and that was the first time I rode them).

The pair weighs in at 1765 grams.
I can't wait to use them in crits this season, so excited!

I am selling that bike :-( I love it, so comfy, but just not the power transfer that I had with carbon. So away it goes.

They are fast, E
One of my sons has Cosmic Carbones, and he really loves them

I don't like deep dish wheels so much (have tried riding his and got a set of Grammo Vipers for my birthday)

I have swapped with my partner - he has my new Grammos, and I have his trispokes... and like the Cosmics/deep dish wheels, tri spokes make a cool sound on the TT bike (not as ominous as a disc, but pretty cool all the same :) )

Enjoy... looking forward to hearing about how they and you go in the crits
