Holy c r a p. See his front wheel flex at 54 seconds.

I'd love to see you do that with your Ridley carbon forks Weiyun!

Couldn't quite gauge the amount of flex, but can say that he has a LOT of spokes. :wink:

I dont think it was the wheel flexing, just the tyre.
Wheels looked like 48h Dyads which are normally used as a tandem touring rim.
I was wondering how he avoiding pinch flats.


I look forward to Weiyun giving us a demo on Sat.

I'd love to, but I don't think the 16 spokes on the front would like it.

Perhaps he's got tubeless?
