I was reading http://www.bikeradar.com/ this morning. There was an article about the new Enve wheels coming out. The interesting thing is that they tested 2 of the fastest Tri/Time Trial bikes on the market. The Cervelo P3 and the Speed Concept 9.8. The best part of this test is that it wasn't done by Cervelo or Trek. It was done by Enve to test their wheels. Look at the graphs above and you will see how much more aero the Speed Concept is than the P3. It isn't even close. We are talking up to 30%+ more aero depending on the wheelset. Something to keep in mind when you are looking for your next bike.
