If you've ever wondered how tire size and rim profiles affect aerodynamics, this episode is for you!

My guest is Dov Tate, founder of Parcours Wheels, a UK brand that's been pushing the envelope on wider rims optimized around wider tires.

The story of how he got to that point, from putting 360º wind sensors low on the bike to intentionally doing wind tunnel tests without a bike frame attached to the wheels, is really cool.

We dive pretty deep on leading edge, trailing edge, optimizing for gravel tires, and a whole lot more, with stories about how he's built his company mixed in for the entrepreneurial minded among us.

There's even talk about some new wheels and where they might be headed with future product development.
