Fat Guy Lew Wheels? Cooooool

Fat Guy Wheel set that tips the scale at 1050 grams? Say it ain't so!

Yes - i'm fat enough (88kg) to tip the scale to the side of "too much load for the wheels" for pretty much ever light weight wheelset made...

So this sounds great... too bad ya need to take out a 3rd mortgage to pay for them (i'm guessing)...

Dear Lew Racer,

We are pleased to announce the launch of the PRO VT-1C (Clydesdale) wheelset supporting riders up to 250 pounds. The wheelset will weigh in less than 1050 grams.

Be on the lookout for Lennard Zinn's review in next month's printed edition of VeloNews magazine. If you haven't already seen the online review, you can do so by clicking the link below:

We will also be making our public debut appearance at the Sea Otter Classic show (booth 130) on April 12th-April 15th. http://www.seaotterclassic.com/. Be sure to stop by our booth to check out the lightest production wheels on the market.

Regards,

They're only $5000. For that price you should get a set for the trailer too.

yeah - such a freaking BARGAIN...

5 grand? No problem...

I'll get a set for the Q-pro and the Croll, not to mention for the TT/Crit bike that the Pmount will be...

Maybe i'll get a deal for buying three sets...

of course i'll need to get a 4th set that i can put in the pit or with neutral service or something ya know?

putting 700c on the trailer would be wicked cool as well... killer idea Solo...

Killer idea...

Anyone got 25 grand they wanna give me?
