Schrader's Return

An addition to the “Diminishing Returns … or Genius?” file ….

"A slight name change marks the start of 2023 for Intermarché-Circus-Wanty, which remains on Cube bikes this year. ………..

"The riders have new wheels from Cube’s Newmen brand too. These hide a Schrader valve within the rim, which is covered by a cap to make a smooth rim profile. The team says this will save it around one watt over an exposed valve."

Back to filling tires at the local gas station?

But, I mean … One Whole Wattt …. Who would pass up energy savings like that?
