Girodilento Hall of Fame: Reynolds 58 Aero Wheelset review
Back in June 2014, I posted a first ride review on the fantastic Reynolds 58 Aero wheelset. To be honest, it was a little more than a first ride and in reading it back before writing this post, I have to say that 2 years on and many thousands of kilometres riding these wheels on […]
Specialized & Mavic go shopping for faster wheels
Over the last couple of weeks you might have noticed, like I did, that Specialized and Mavic have got their corporate chequebooks out and bought some more speed. It amused me as it’s what us punters talk about doing – credit card speed but as well as giving me a bit of a chuckle, I […]
2015 Bontrager Aeolus D3 TLR – lighter, faster, more versatile?
If you’ve been watching the news recently, you might have noticed the news about Bontrager announcing a new evolution of their Aeolus carbon aero wheels. These new updated wheel bring a few useful updates that should help keep them on your possible shortlist for high end aero wheels. The previous versions got some excellent reviews […]
Reynolds 58 Aero first ride review
The aero wheel market has made some big leaps forward during the last few years as different companies and their product launch cycles have all brought new and more advanced designs to market. Zipp’s Firecrest rims and the ENVE Smart system saw a change to wider rims and a chunky improvement in aero performance over […]
Reynolds launch 2014 Road Wheel range: More affordable cutting edge aero
Over the last couple of years, I’ve been fortunate enough to try several sets of Reynolds wheels. I’ve also had a number of discussions about the evolution of range thanks to helping Reynolds out on their demo programme at some of Wiggle’s sportives during 2013. I’ve been looking forward to writing this post for months […]
Reynolds Attack wheel review
Over the last couple of months, I’ve been lucky enough to have been riding a pair of Reynolds Attack wheels. I’ve ridden them on three different bikes, in cold and hot weathers, when it’s still and in strong winds. The only conditions I’ve not spent a lot of time on them in is the wet […]
Zipp’s new 30 and 60 wheelsets – aero for the rest of us?
A few days ago Zipp announced the release of two new wheelsets that are far more affordable by Zipp standards – the 30 and the 60 and I think it’s both interesting and good news for roadies. Zipp have been at the top of their game for the last few years in my opinion. The […]
Reynolds Forty Six Clincher Wheelset Review* or how I learned to love cheating
A few weeks ago I had the depressing task of taking the Forty Six’s off my bike, boxing them up and waiting for the courier to come and take them away. To be honest, I was pretty gutted as I’d thoroughly enjoyed them and had been vainly (and foolishly) hoping that Paddy at Reynolds might […]
