The funny thing is, of course, that my MBA class this spring is Supply Chain and Operations Management. While I'm crushing it in the class, the coronavirus is crushing the world's supply chains, including ours.
The rims for our February pre-order have been built and boxed for a while now, but since something like 80% of air traffic is grounded, getting them on their merry way to us is the challenge. So, like a lot of other things in the weeks and months to come, carbon rims are going to be inventory challenged for a bit.
If you're directly affected by this, you should have gotten an email from us this morning. If you'd been planning to use your pre-order wheels in Milan-Sanremo, you're in luck as it looks like that's going to be cancelled now.
Good times, good times.

Binx – We’d love to, but they’re not doing rim sales on them, only build wheels.
PC – It is!
Did you get a look at the HED eroica carbon rims? Will you guys be building on those?
Sounds like it might be time for me to order that alloy wheelset I’ve been eyeing
