Faster than a 3 spoke in any condition, faster than even our 404, the 808’s patent pending ABLC dimpled rim surface combined with a rim depth of 81mm simply humbles any racecourse. This is the best all around time trial wheelset available anywhere. The days of being blown around mercilessly on windy courses are over. The 808 provides almost as much speed a disc, without the potentially hazardous handling shortcomings. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, the 808 is draft legal. That’s right, you can road race the 808, and it is legal in ALL triathlon applications.
