We'll see...........Well, I absolutely LOVE my new-this-year 650 ENVE wheels, and I remain hopeful that we may be seeing the disc versions on bikes other than Andy's in the not-too-distant future. But it will definitely depend on whether the frame makers eliminate the small frames and/or the double diamonds. It's going to be an interesting few years for short girls.
This is AWESOME news! I spoke with the principals (their HQ is literally across the street in Las Vegas from where I work) 4 years ago. They were present at our inaugural Indoor Tri and they had no interest in 650 wheels (of course, I asked). That the home-town business now has that capacity gives me hope that *****maybe***** there might even be a choice of frames and wheels in the future and still have a bike that fits. Otherwise, what is the point of bike fit?
One LBS (harkening to the mansplaining thread) tried to tell me that there was a "magic way" to make me fit in an aggressive position on a tri bike with 700 wheels. I told them that there was only math, not magic, and they lost the sale.
