U Mad
New Mad Fiber carbon clinchers. 60mm front/66mm rear, 1200 grams. That works. The $3000 MSRP, not so much. Oh well. If you wanna play you gotta pay. Too bad they're so painfully fugly.

In Weight Weenie Parlance, 'only' before '200 grams' is always incorrect.

If they could somehow clean up that spoke rim junction they'd look a lot better.

Incorrect.
For 60mm carbon clinchers, 1200 grams is completely unprecedented, and that's 50 grams lighter than 58mm Zipp 404 tubulars.

I clicked on this thread thinking that I would see them with the Cervelo in front of a nice bench.

Ah! Them clinchers are finally out! Yep, my buddy has been eyeing these. He originally was going to get the tubulars, but after he was told that they are about to bust out with the clinchers, he was willing to wait. And it's been about 4 months now I think. I told him to invest the $3k on me instead so I can go ride with him.
