Tom Demerly, are you there?

Tom, what wheelset did you use at Steelhead?

Zipp disc, 404 in the front, both with TUFO.

thank you.

He was being sarcastic.

I’m pretty sure I nailed it :wink:
.

And I thought the Tufos were a dead give away for the sarcasm.

Tom is on record as being a tufo guy
.

He rode Zipp 909s, which is as Paulo stated a 404 and disc with Conti Competitions.

Actually I think the front was an 808.

Sorry I missed you at Steelhead. I don’t know if I can be coached by someone who I have not met.

I’m pretty sure it was the 909 set, but i’ll check today when i drop by the shop at lunch.

P.S. Trianthes, wow you’re fast, congrats on the race!

Shoot. Paulo does indeed know everything about triathlon : (

Thanks for the congrats!

Paulo is pretty darn close. I used a pair of Zipp 909’s (as Paulo mentioned, 404 front, Zipp disk rear) but I did use Continental 22mm wide Competition tires at 140 psi due to the rough pavement in the chip n’ seal section for a little better ride quality. The wheels seemed to work out very well.

Last year at Steelhead used a 100mm deep front wheel and disk rear. The 100mm deep front was a trifle too deep for my taste and felt a bit cross-windy.

Overall, I was pretty darn impressed with how well my equipment- right down to the new Wigwam socks I wore on the run on the recommendation of Matt Nyquist and Sean Peecher- worked.
