Nailing the wheel market at a first attempt was always a big ask for USE, and for the most part the Nano 4.5 aren't bad. They roll well.
Once they were up to 14/15mph, momentum took over and before I knew it I was knocking on the door of 20mph, which riding alone in sub-zero conditions, is no mean feat. However, they just didn't make me feel like I was about to smoke the rest of the peloton or smash a PB.
