Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Spinergy Rev X

Hey, anyone here using Spinergy Rev X? Please do share your thoughts when riding on it.

I recently purchased Spinergy Rev X and have only ridden it once. Overall looks good, fast, but on a hard corner, I feel like the rims slightly bend thus does not provide enough stiffness. I heard some people put "tensioner" on their Spinergy.

P.S: I am new here, sorry in advance if I made a new thread thats already there or posted on the wrong forum.

I have them on a road bike, they never felt any different to me than any other wheel enough to comment on. They are supposed to be as aerodynamic a current wheel of the same 60mm depth. Someday if I get nice calm day to ride weather-wise, I would like to test them against a set of old standard tradition wire-spoked wheels and see if they actually do offer any speed advantage, as that is my only interest in them period. I got mine for free from a cycling buddy who had them in his basement unused, so if they do not turn out to have any performance advantage I will be out nothing, unlike those who spend big-bucks for them as fashion accessories.
