"Utah-based Edge Composites infuses Page's build kit with even more
carbon fiber, including the feathery seatpost with its clever one-bolt
head, stout stem, and semi-anatomic bar with flattened tops and rounded
ends. Bucking the trend of deep-section rims, Edge also supplied Page
with special extra-strong versions of its shallow 25mm carbon tubulars
just days before he took the start line at the recent US national
championships in Bend, Oregon.
"I'd ridden the same type of wheel, the 25, but this is a stronger
lay-up than their original," said Page. "I don’t particularly like
deep-dish wheels; I can feel the ground better with a shallower rim. I
can understand [using them] in snow or sand but for all the other ones
it doesn't really matter. Of course, I think they're stiff, too, but if
they're too stiff then you have other issues. You have to get your tire
pressures exactly, exactly right." - Cycling News
