The Aero Rim Wars: For Just 1mm More



This is pretty funny. As there's been recently so much competition emerging in the field of aero track/fixed rims, Velocity have decided to step up their game. 

Velocity's President John Black talks about their new rim model, the B43:

"If all goes as planned, they should be readily available this spring.... I hope. It is called the B43, because it is 43mm tall, making it 1mm taller than our very worthy and formidable competition."

Now let me just copy+paste that once again:

"...making it 1mm taller than our very worthy and formidable competition..."

Is he serious? Aussies are known to have quite particular sense of humor. But if he is, WHO CARES?! 

I don't. And just for the record. I'd much rather support H+Son or Dodici. Or get some vintage Campagnolo or Zipp rims or whatever.
