    Thanks for the links... but they only state a *preference* for deep
    section rims. This is consistant with Zipp's data which shows slight
    benefits as the section gets deeper. I didn't see anything like "you'll
    need a minimum of 60mm, preferably around 80+ to gain any truly aero
    benefit"... as though anything less than that is useless.
