Message: >Does anyone know where I can get a track wheel covered in Mylar to make a make-shift disc wheel?? I live in Seattle and I have heard of it being done. Can it be done with High Flange D-A hubs?? Thanks There used to be several brands -- I think HED used to make an aerodynamic rear wheel cover -- the covers were definitely in vogue about 20 years ago for TT riders since they cost then-as-now a fraction of what a true disc wheel would cost ... there are OTHER brands! EXCEL Sports (Boulder, CO) still sells one for $60 + shipping: http://www.excelsports.com/new.asp?page=8&description=Wheel+Cover&vendorCode=CHAERO&major=1&minor=24 It should fit on your wheel, but CALL them to verify.
