I know, I know...like Keith Bontrager from the Mountain Bike racing world said, "Lightweight, Strong or inexpensive. Pick any two."

In my opinion there is enough apparent technology there that the fasteners do not need to be visible for even the layman to see.
-We use a roll formed thread in the center that results in 50% greater pull strength vs. conventional tapping, which I'm sure you know is forming the threads into the aluminum instead of cutting them into material.

We also designed and have our own specific bolts for all Formula 43 wheels in the RAD and RENN series of 18" and 19" of wheels.
