i really hope that the reason you have an Aerospoke on the back is that you realized that there is more of an aerodynamic advantage and not your desperate try to start a new trend

that heavy tank of a wheel would be awesome on the back because of it's fly wheel effect.

plus, having it on the back with a radially laced front wheel looks better than having it on the front with a 3 cross rear imo.

that being said...mine's up front

i thought i remembered reading in another thread just the other day that the front has a greater aerodynamic advantage because of the seattube and seatpost...

of course, many people seemed to maintain that aerospokes in particular hold no advantage over a spoked wheel...

For real. I like your bike a lot.

That QR lever is making me go insane though. Probably just my problem.
