Introducing the Zipp 454 NSW carbon clincher

[News bot]

Zipp’s new 454 NSW Carbon Clincher is radical by design, evolutionary by nature. In the natural world, creatures are honed over generations to achieve a competitive edge within their environment. The result of this natural design process is adaptation − new shapes and forms that achieve a higher degree of efficiency and control.

What always amazes me is how things radically changes when it has evolved to a point. Now they are looking at Nature-A wheel is not a natural object so how do you want to solve it by looking at a whale's fins? Its like trying to solve a algebra equation with a watermelon. I think it is all Marketing hype.

Do you know that for example velcro is based on bio mimicry? Is that not a very usefull invention? Why not bring this form of invention to cycling?

 

Please get educated on the matter before you make stupid comments.
