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

Had a feeling they were something new from Sean. Looked to deep to be the 5.0s but not deep enough for the 8.5's. I'm very tempted to get a set of the C4.0s.

Hope he makes those in a clincher of some sort. They would probably weigh around 1450 for a 62mm clincher.

Best graphics I've seen on carbon wheels. Are they molded in or some super stealth decal?

LOL. To those of us that aren't exactly sure what we're looking at, it may take a minute to figure out that these are not pictures of huge over-inflated inner tubes. They're actually rims (I think).

Seeing everyone's reactions is making me think I should leave a "Congratulations, those are nice" in here, so.....Congratulations! Those are nice!
