[Bike geek nitpicking here] Trispokes are actuallly heavier than other wheels of the same price, but they have an aerodynamic advantage. The advantage depends of course of the speed. A fat man of course can't go fast enough long enough for the wheels to have any measurable effect. They are generally not used outside of competition because they don't last very long since they can't be straightened. The fat fucker just dropped thousands on a piece that won't last him and won't benefit him whatsoever. Also, the fucker doesn't have any brake on his bike, he's a fucking danger to everyone around him.
