Just a tip..

Your front wheel is on backwards. A Hed/Specialized tri-spoke will always have the valve stem on the drive side. The wheel works like a wing, not a blade, so the broad side faces "out."

Hmmm, I'm not sure I understand the wing/blade part. Could you explain it more? I didn't think it made much of a difference which way I put it.

That's how you'd like air to pass over the spokes, in order to gain any of the aerodynamic properties.

In your case it probably doesn't since you got the wheel for aesthetic purposes and not the original purpose of being aero. Not hating on you, just saying.

Wiki "airplane wing" or "airplane" and read up.

I'll do that, in the mean time thanks to both of you for letting me know. I flipped it around. I actually got the wheel because it was stupidly cheap in my situation and thought, why the hell not.
