    Do you know if it is only in Europe or also rest of world? I imagine it would be a total stop order on the CF rim option for all regions. Did they say if they are coming back once the issue is resolved?

    I think it’s worldwide
    the production will be taken over by Carbon Revolution only if the carbon rims meet the specifications

    I'd say Grigio Ferro, but I could be wrong.

    Indeed, you could be wrong and I could be also wrong but I'd say Ferro, too.

    Seriously? First they had supply issues and now that the wheels are reaching the customers technical issues appear? What a fiasco!

    Plus the new paint process they are having issues with all the metallic paints. Did they stop testing?

    Also as an interesting info for anyone who has CF wheels on order:
    The rims are layered with a thermal ring on the inside. Once the wheels receive too much heat from the brakes, these rings will change their color. After reaching their limit, the wheels have to be replaced.

    So if you have CF wheels on order, will they just be substituted with the forged?

    Did you order the CF wheels, Jerry? TM admitted that they might not be ideal after I expressed my desire to put tens of thousands of miles on the Pista.

    Plus, the forged thin spoke wheels look [emoji1362].

    I love the tdf wheels on my 812. And the thin-spoked models on the F12. And... ;)

    Honestly, it was a tough decision for me. Didn’t make a final call until the TM meeting. I felt a little guilty not going for the lowest unsprung weight.

    They are cool & must benefit handling, I’m sure. Good luck. I hope they can resolve any issues. [emoji1360]

    They are still delivering builds that include the CF wheels. You will just get a call and be asked, which standard rims you prefer at the moment. CF wheels will be send out later then as soon as they are available again.
