Re: 2012 KOP Wheels failing.

Our team had several of our KOP wheels fail this year. Unfortunately it was because of loctite! We switched them for IFI and Plactions in week 5.

I have seen several KOP wheels fail around the bearing like the one in your picture. This year I thought we would give them a try as the wheels had a nice grip to them but going over the bump was going to be too much for them.
