Rear deep carbon wheel with front training wheel?
Quote | Reply
I am racing IM Santa Rosa in a week. Just found out my enve 6.7 front wheel is delaminating and I can't ride it. At this point all the wheel rentals are booked. Do I just ride my training set (mavic aksium) or ride the mavic front with my enve 7 in the back and look a little off? Will it give me any real aero advantage? I am planning on riding around 20-21 mph. Thanks for the help.

I think you know the answer... Looking dumb is a lot better than being slow.

Assuming they’re both clincher, definitely use the rear. You didn’t spend $3k on wheels to leave them at home...

See if you can find an aero front to borrow. You could probably buy and resell one and come out even too

+1....and being slower than you need to be is dumb.

Where are you located? I’m over by Stanford, and could lend you a wheel.
