It's a wacky idea but you could always speak to your LBS?

We've had a few sets through already. Availability is pretty low though and they're being sold about as quickly as Zipp are making them so it's entirely possible that you ordered just as one batch was sold out and before the next shipment became available.

But y'know, how long is a while? A week? A month? Your post is so low on information as to be basically useless....

Then if your LBS told you it'd take 6 weeks, things are probably just fine.

Just got mine, shop had them in stock, and I had them in hand two days after order...
What's more I was shocked to see they weighed 1505 without skewers. It seems like maybe they improved the manufacturing process after the initial test batch...
Could not be happier with these things.

Until recall and 8 weeks fix time in the middle of the season :mrgreen:

I can be wrong, and have plenty of examples for that ;)

As after the night comes the day, you can be sure, these days, when there is a post on zipp/sram subject, there will be repetitive and dull stormur's zipp/sram hate comment....
It's really boring mate.
