FSA wheels - and other FSA stuff	Can't Post

got to see all the new FSA stuff this weekend at a show, including the visiontech stuff. I had asked about the wheels in the past, the three flange hub models and finally got to see them also. what surprised me was the during the "FSA presentation," Ric Hjertberg from FSA went over the "traditional" FR or FD 400 wheels as the new cool thing, not even mentioning the three flanged hub until we asked at which time he really didn't add any more than the press release. I had planned on buying a set that day but didn't.

As always, the FSA table had a bunch of goodies . . .

I thought all the stuff looked good on one table . . . sorry, couldn't resist. Beyond that, I'm really not qualified to give an opinion on the matter. I'm assuming that coming under the FSA umbrella has really added to R&D for visiontech overall. The rep explained the euro market and I think this exsposure will only add to the benefit of the entire product line. That said, I think there are many comparable, if not superior, alternatives strictly speaking of bars (both one piece and combination systems). It will be interesting to see what evolves over the next year though.
