"I have been riding Spin Lite wheels for the last 3 years; I am on my third set of wheels. The two other pairs of wheels I have raced all across the world on and have never Had to get them fixed! Still Never Trued. The pair I am on now are INCREDIBLE, They are so stiff, Light, and Aero, plus I just think they look awesome.

One other reason that I love Spin Lite wheels are the fact that when I go race in Australia, Europe and I will be there for a couple months, I only have to bring one set of wheels, I train on them put some race tires on and I wont have a worry in the world about using the same wheels for both racing and training.

I just want thank Lyle with Spin Lite for the great wheels and support these past 3 years. "
