Seriously considering the Flo for my Shiv. Anyone have any other suggestions or have a Flo on their Shiv?

If you decide on the Flo, be ready to act fast. It will sell out tomorrow in minutes.

Have you checked out Renn. Flat disc and it makes the cool whoosh sound.

dmounts—that is a beautiful ride sir. Congratulations

Is there any data for the Renn flat disc?

I heard they changed their design awhile back, and are much much improved now. Would love to hear a detailed review.

Is the Shiv compatible with a disc cover? I’d go that route and use the extra money for something else. Like race fees.

Not sures. Anyone running a cover?

I have an 808 with a cover and it fits fine.

Awesome. Thanks! What kind of cover do you have?

I think you have, possibly, to me, the greatest looking bike I have ever seen. Wow… some Flo’s with the stealth green stickers would probably bring it to perfection.

However, I have a Renn 5-5-5, as I ride a P2 (and Cervelo had said at one time flat disc’s tested better, no idea where I read that though), and that rumble/whoosh strikes fear in everyone you pass. Or, you get laughed at by everyone passing you. I love the Renn disc, but I have nothing I have ridden to compare it to.

The Flo carbon would match better with what you have going on there in color scheme imho, no matter what stickers/debadged you go with.

Word from wheelbuilder is that even on “incompatible” frames for their covers, the deeper the rim, the better the chance of it actually fitting. Others have reported good results with taping down the non drive side before buttoning everything up.

Thanks! Pretty amazing that they show better aerodynamics that a regular disc…

Thanks! It’s been a work in progress as far as the decals but i like going a bit minimalist rather than completely naked! I agree that Flo comes in a green that would match perfectly…
