They are just not advertised enough. My son rides these and he goes pretty well. The bearings are quite smooth, and if you spin them up in a bike stand, its very hard to find any "fanning effect" from the trispoke. In contrast, do that with a 32 spoke wheel. You could blow out a match from a foot away.
They just seem very fast. Also, they can easily be retrofitted for track with a simple switch of the center hub.
Enjoy. Just make sure you use suitable brake pads.

I use them. I have both the Spiders and the tubular Flys. I use the Fly's for most of my races when I'm at home and I use the Spiders for bike races and triathlons while I'm at school. They've been awesome.
Why is there not much info/talk about nimble wheels? I have been eyeing them for some time now but they are never compared to Zipps or HED. Does anyone know why this is? Is it because they are not as good or not as aero?
