Yeah. 56mm deep, and over 27mm wide at the widest point.
Second pair built up now. They are well finished, light, easy to build with, and seem to have plenty of lateral stiffness. I've ridden them in horrible coastal winds, and they behave brilliantly.
When I'm next in the wind tunnel. I'll let you know if they are actually aero.
Tried to convince my mate to buy a 86mm, and a 40mm. So, as a climber, he could have a 56/40 wheelset, and I could have a 86/56 wheelset, with a powertap rear. Could'nt really sell him my heavily dremeled rear hub though.
