I have no affiliation with them--they're well known to sell some nice stuff and 20% off is a pretty good deal. I don't think I've ever ordered from them to be honest with you. I was just researching wheels and came across the sale banner.

Must be the Assos, of course. That price is outrageous no matter where you look. But this is the best sales blurb:

Thanks to Assos, though, not only can we ride in extraordinary comfort (in any weather, on any length ride), but we can stop mid-ride at the coffee shop and hold our heads high as we click-clack past the table full of feverishly-gossiping, Macchiato-sipping, Sequoia-driving, "maybe I'll take a Yoga class"-thinking soccer moms who, in fact, look better after 2 kids at age 35 than they did in college. Thank you Assos. You let us feel like men.

Please direct me to a place that has Zipps cheaper than retail minus 20%, because I'll be wanting to buy from them soon.
