Jack,
Cool to see some new wheels out there. What are the specs on them? Duros? Size?
Thanks,
Aaron

80A seems a bit soft to me, but of course the Avalons have been pretty successful in the softer duros. This wheel is more narrow though. Wouldn't it benefit from a harder duro?

I like the shape though. I always liked the old Hyper wheels.

With larger wheels like Avalons and Avilas out there it's good that this new one is larger than the "small" 62, 63 mm wheels. 66mm will probably be a size suitable for all types of slalom.

Good news, thanks!

Jani

Buy some Avalons and trimm their edges down.

cameron, ask for shaved wheels in your local butchery... they will probably have some cut off stuff for you...
