What are they? 303 NSW?
There has to be a new NSW line up, as current NSW models aren't lighter than new Firecrests.
Cervelo P5 Disc (2021) 9.1kg
Factor Ostro Gravel (2023) 8.0kg
S-Works SL8 (2023) 6.3kg

*weights are race ready, size 58/L.
Sold: Venge, S5 Disc, Roubaix Team, Open WI.DE, Émonda, Shiv TT, Crux, Aethos, SL7

Oh wow... but why? Apart from the undulating design being questionable from a functional stand point, how much sense does it make on a sub 50mm deep wheel?

Pure conjecture here... Maybe this is it and we don't see a new 303 NSW...

Could be very light. Has to be right? Otherwise not much point buying these against the 303.

Definitely have to be sub 1350g, otherwise they are rather pointless in the current market.
I dont really believe these are going to be 12xxg. Considering how heavy 454s were, I'd be pretty surprised if they were lighter.

OMG. That's really good if you are okay with hookless / TL set up. That's a solid climbing wheels not to mention the all round depth.
