Man I really want to know.

The dimples LOOK exactly like there is no tape over a spoke hole. But he clearly has the holes covered. And well covered. And WHY THE HECK are there TWO holes? Equal distance? Every time? It's driving me nuts.


If I had the stuff I'd do the experiments in this order.

1. Yank the tape and start over with NO tape on the shoulder area.

If the flats still occurred...

2. Build up the valley with tape.

If the flats still occurred...
