During our visit to Interbike, we stopped into the Nineteen Wetsuit booth. We spoke with their Sales and Marketing Manager, Steve Fleck. I've always been a fan of Nineteen Wetsuits. My personal favorite is the Frequency. I had a chance to demo the Frequency last season and was blown away by how flexible and comfortable the suit is. The WingSpan System does an incredible job of eliminating resistance in the shoulder area and encouraging proper body roll. If you are in the market for a wetsuit, Nineteen Wetsuits are definitely a brand you should consider.

To learn more about Nineteen Wetsuits visit there website www.nineteenwetsuits.com and watch our video below to see Steve talk about the 2011 Frequency.

Interbike 2010 was a big success for us. All of our scheduled meetings went well and we are still pushing for early 2011 release of our wheels. For more information on our wheels, visit http://www.flocycling.com.

We also grabbed a few pictures of some bikes you might like to see. Try not to drool too much.

This is an interesting bike that QR is working on. Check out the asymmetrical down tube designed to divert the air to the side with the missing seat stay. I'd love to see this modeled in a CFD program.

I love this bike. Maybe I have a soft spot since I am Canadian.

Finally a couple of pics for the Dirt Lovers

We are getting ready to purchase the carbon fiber for our 60mm, 90mm, and Disc wheels. We want to know what you prefer: Unidirectional (UD), 3K Weave, or 12K Weave. We will be leaving the vote open for seven days. The carbon fiber with the most votes will win. Please take a minute to vote below. 

Thank you,

Nine months have passed since I wrote on slowtwitch.com about my brother (Jon Thornham) and I starting an aero wheel company (see link below). Today we want to update you with some very exciting news. Our wheel designs are complete, our materials are selected, and our pricing is in line. If all goes as planned, Flo Cycling will be a reality very soon!

We plan to offer carbon fiber race wheels in 60mm and 90mm depths, along with a lenticular disc. If our meetings at Interbike go as planned, we hope to bring our wheels to market in the first quarter of 2011.

Exact pricing details are not yet available. However, we can say our price range will be in line with our original post.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or suggestions. We want to know what you think.  We hope to get your input along the way with aesthetics, graphics, type of carbon weave, etc. Take a minute to visit our teaser site where you can register for email updates or send us a message. Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Blogger, and Twitter.

Thank you for your interest and support,

Chris Thornham
