I just received word that the molds were modified a second time to add additional material to the main hub of the wheel where the spokes meet. I believe this is related to the porosity issue from before. I was told excess material will be milled off, so we'll have to wait and see what the final weight of the wheel will be. The mold is returning to the production facility for the 3rd time for samples to be produced.
I'm not pleased with the delays, but I am glad to see they are putting an emphasis on quality and not rushing anything through. Our dealings with Rota previously showed us what kind of problems that can cause.
