* $975/rim, yikes! Please let me know when they're $200.
* aerodynamically matched for 30mm (actual width) tires. 30mm tires are really fast on pavement, but only tolerably well on dirt. A 40mm tire isn't going to look so aero on these wheels. Hopefully these are the first in a series of aero rims for 35mm and 40mm tires.
* disc only. It makes sense for the intended market. I'd like to see similar rims with an aluminum braking surface, too. A carbon braking surface rim intended for gravel would be a poor choice.
* tubeless clincher and tubular options. Great choice for cyclocross.
*80psi limit with tubes, 100psi limit tubeless. Clydesdales take note. This should be a high performance wheel for heavier riders. Riders over 200lb will be best served with >30mm tires to avoid that pressure limit.
