x2,

i needed a reason to go all clincher TT race wheels, i think i have found it.

Wait until you see our aero data  For those of you who don't know, we spent the Tuesday at the A2 Wind Tunnel in North Carolina.  Our results will be published soon.  Check out our Facebook page for lots of cool pictures!

Canadian Flo...slowly back away from the computer, get busy and get those wheels to market!!...the season is under way!  How about a little less time on the interwebz and a little more time on manufacturing??...based on what I've seen here and on ST, I hope you ordered enough

Hope the wind tunnel test went well...sure would like these wheels for my A-race in October.

Trust me my friend, we want these wheels on the market just as bad as you do.  However, building custom rim and fairing shapes takes time.  Our wheels work together as a system so we had to start from scratch.

For now I'll say that the wind tunnel went better than expected

Great pictures....Can't wait to see the results.  But by the look in your faces i'm betting that the data collected was better than expected.....

I'd say you're onto something

Thanks CJ!

LOL... the whole point of these wheels is that you don't have to do that to afford a pair.

And I am VERY excited for these wheels, especially after that review. My bank account is waiting to be drained for a set of those 90's!

I'm glad you liked the review.  We appreciate the support!

Haha good point.  We are happy you liked the review!

All the best,

Chris, I understand the challenges of delivery a newly manufactured product to market.  It can be very daunting and it seems as if timelines change by the hour. You guys are doing very well...keep up the great work.

If it helps support Flo Cycling, I would sell his body too.

Some of these may have been covered already but I have a couple of questions:

-Do you know if a wheelbuilder wheelcover will fit on your 90's (or why don't you make your own as an upgrade with the wheel. Is it that hard for someone with your capabilities to cut a couple pieces of plastic to fit perfectly with your wheels)?

-I know you just built the prototypes but have you found a tire that works best? I saw the tririg Q&A stating 23mm works best but in testing was there any difference between the Pro Race 3's and the Open Corsa's fitting the rim profile better?

I am super excited to get the 60/90 with a wheelcover. A complete race setup for under $1000

Thanks guys, you made my year!

That sounds great.  If you've read the review by TriRig.com you know the wheels look great on a speed concept!

Thanks for the support,

Thank you very much for the kind words.  I must agree that at times it has been a little daunting.  One millimeter here or there can mean so much.  We are getting there though.  Our hard work feels like it is starting to pay off.

All the best,

LOL!

chris review is exceptional....

wanted to get a roadbike and slap the 60mm on there.... 

That sounds great.  I'll be outfitting my road bike with FLO 60s too.  I think you'll like the looks of the FLO 60 aero data as well

Take care,

That sounds great.  Thanks for the support.  We are going to be releasing pre-order details through our newsletter first.  You can sign up at our website if you are interested.  Pre-order wheels will ship on a first come first serve basis so signing up might be your best bet.  If you are not a newsletter guy you can also "like" us on facebook or follow us on twitter.

Thanks again for the support,

Just saw the review on Tri Rig.  Wow, very nice.  Was thinking of renting a race wheel for Austin 70.3 but now....Hmmm, will have to sign up for the newsletter.

BTW, nice job and congrats on the new wheels!
