It is now past Eurobike and Interbike. Has CarbonSports made any announcement regarding any changes to or new versions of GIPFELSTURM?CarbonSportsGmbH wrote:HammerTime2 wrote:Is there going to be a Gen. IV GIPFELSTURM? If so, what will be the differences from the Gen. III GIPFELSTURM?
Please be patient for some more days, as we don't want to post all news before Eurobike...

Can you tell us whether there are plans to release a meilenstein obermayer with the new 47.5m rim profile please ?
Thanks

=> there won't be a Obermayer in 47,5mm within the next year.

=> same answer as above
phew!
after months of dithering and thinking about the money, i splurged on some obermayers in july
then when i realised it was new product season, and the pictures of the mysterious box appeared, i wondered did i buy a little too soon
but they are lovely wheels, even if one day there is a new generation

We don't do individual design, but we work together with Michael Conde, who is a genious airbrusher. Just have a look at andersARTiges.de => Fahrräder
Of course you can task every airbrusher you want... would make things easier to take someone near you.

With 20spoked rear wheels there should be no problems even with 27T or 28T

Both available ?
=> ask your LBS... production of Gen. III will stop ~ end of the year
record wrote:why the height was reduced?
- less sensitivity for crosswinds
- better aerodynamics
- same shape as the clinchers
- completely different production compared to Gen. III
- (some more reasons...)
