Yeah I guess so. I was just hoping that since they were already spending the money for new equipment that they would come up with a more unique spoke design you know?

Ohh well, I guess thats a pipe dream. Its time to write a bunch of letters to OZ I guess.

You'll be getting much more rubber, and probably losing 10lbs a corner of unsprung weight, by replacing the 29lb stocker wheels.

Also, it's not a curving spoke design, like every other CSL rep out there. The mounting plate is recessing in a cup-like design. It definitely reminds me of the Kosei K1's mounting plate area, where the spokes attach from the tire bead lip area to the rim of a cup, and the bottom of the cup is the mounting plate.
