New digs for Zipp
Thought you might find this interesting...Zipp moved from Speedway, Indiana to about 10 blocks from my home. They are on the NW side in Indy now. Their prior location was just down the street from turn 1 of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
It's great to have the top wheel company on the planet in Indianapolis. Along with the large number of companies that work on the Indy cars, these guys get service from many of those same companies...
Enjoy. The whole wheel is US made except for the Belgian made spokes and the Swiss bearings.

You live in Indy? What a disapointment, I always thought you were a European 
Next time you're visiting, can you ask Mr. Zipp if he'd be willing to put together a BF group buy on the 404's?

Good article, I have been a big fan of there bike's since I first saw they, and still use them as my daily ride.
