How much time will riding the FLO 49 AS save you? This table estimates your time savings by comparing a FLO 49 AS and a Mavic Open Pro, and calculating watt savings over specified race distances. Times savings are based on two wheels.

Go further, faster with the FLO 49 AS. This wheel was designed to save you watts by taking both aerodynamics and rolling resistance into consideration. Thanks to a drag-reducing aerodynamic profile that is optimized around a wide internal rim width, and designed to lower rolling resistance, the FLO 49 AS ensures the watts you put into the pedals are not wasted spinning your wheels, but are used to move you forward. Explore the tabs to the right to learn more about how to shave off time and watts by choosing the FLO 49 AS.

The goal of making a cycling wheel aerodynamic is to reduce the drag. Drag on a cycling wheel makes it more difficult to move the bike forward through the air, and consumes the watts you put into the pedals.

The FLO 49 AS was designed to reduce the watts consumed by drag so the watts you put into the pedal move you forward. Be aero and be faster.

The goal of lowering the rolling resistance for a cycling wheel is to make the wheel easier to roll. Rolling resistance occurs at the contact patch where your tire makes contact with the road surface. The higher the rolling resistance, the harder to move the bike forward, and the more watts wasted.

The FLO 49 AS was designed with a wide internal rim width to shorten your contact patch, reduce the rolling resistance, and use the watts put into the pedals to move you forward. Be wider, be faster.
