Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Zipp 808's

Hi all. Anyone have any experience with the Zipp 808's? If, so, can you tell me about them? Thanks!

Don't take it personally, this guy spams for a living. Best to ignore these types.

Here is a nice video by GCN on the NSW's

I linked you to more useful info than you’ll get in this entire thread. And you’re resentful?

Wow.

Sorry Koyote, I thought you just referred me to the Google machine. I didn't see the actual link that you provided. My apologies.
But you're still a smart alec

This is how you treat people who help you? Seriously?

Next time I won’t bother.

Your toxicity is reaching critical mass.
The vast majority of your interactions are routinely negative and confrontational.
Maybe there are personal reasons for this, but that's honestly no excuse.

Thanks Shelby. Maybe it's my browser, as I use a more obscure one. But when searched Zipp 808 reviews, the GCN video didn't come up for me. At least not noticeably.

Will do. Thank you. I'll be research later today. Do you know if the 808's are only Tubular, or do they also take tubes (clincher)?
