  1. I'm trying to decide whether a front disk wheel has any real advantage
    over a carbon deep dish 16 spoke wheel (Bontrager X Lite Carbon Aero)
    for a 3000 m pursuit (sub 4 minute) on an indoor track. In windless
    conditions, I think most would say that the disk has an advantage. But
    the question is by how much? Is it a matter of paying a big pile of
    money for a 0.01 second advantage or is there more to be gained. Any
    thoughts?
