Mavic Cosmic Expert + Zipp 1150?

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

It appears to be a track cog, maybe a flip wheel for road and track?

yeah it have both road and track cog in either side, funny how zipp is doing thing.
the cog is 8 speed and it really pain me to find a suitable gear for it, well find it now, will set up for it in next 3 week, i have to replace the old r500 shimano front because a small damage (when i drope the wheel in....) the rims is KIA so have to find a replacement, find this deep cool looking cosmic in eBay, set up but no use now, i just don't know how it feel so i ask you guys, well will wait until the bike finish and feel it then.

You mean funny how Zipp was doing things 15 years ago? That Mavic would be fastest with a Veloflex record probably. If you aren't TT'ing then the wheels are probably not the best for what you are doing.
