studies have shown that it can produce the effects of a disc wheel up to 90-95%. how about that?

unless you are on a track, or in a TT, i hardly believe this fake disc wheel helps any. for every bit of "aero" a rider may see, it's negated by the added weight. mashing around in traffic with a fake disc, while i'll admit still looks kinda cool, is not an arena where ANYONE would notice any benefit.
