The Past
Ed Giroux started out as a precision machinist, tool and mold maker. He later opened his own business in Milford, Michigan where it is still located today.

The Motivation
It was Ed's love for cycling that inspired him to pursue a strong, aerodynamic, fast, low-maintenance wheel. Using the skills that he honed at his trade over the years, he developed the first Aerospoke wheel and the company was incorporated in 1988.

The Present
Today Aerospoke is a flourishing manufacturer, making wheels for almost all types of cycling, and some products for other industries including horse racing sulkies and wheels used for custom machinery and engineering needs. People buy the Aerospoke wheel because it's a winning product. Early private testing proved the Aerospoke had aerodynamic advantages over traditional spoked wheels. The success of Aerospoke is due to its loyal customers who spread the gospel via word of mouth and the Internet. This is the kind of success that can't be bought with high-priced endorsements.

The Design
Aerospoke wheels were designed with every rider in mind, not just the 130 pounders. The wheels offer something for everyone; the sport rider, fitness rider or commuter no longer has to true their wheels. They can use that time riding instead. The competitor (even the Clydesdale or Athena) can have a fast, aerodynamic wheel that is also durable and resilient.

The Value
Many competitive cyclist have a training and a racing set of wheels. They only use the racing wheels for special events, treating them like grandma does her fine china. With Aerospoke you only need the one set; get on and ride it everyday! Add to that the quick-change hubs, sealed bearings, and their easy low-cost exchange policy and you have the best winning combination in all of cycling. Plus, Aerospoke wheels are priced far below many other high-performance wheelsets, so you don't have to sacrifice your groceries to get them. No expensive trips to the bike shop for truing adds to the value.

The Quality
All Aerosopoke five-spoke wheels are assembled proudly using American craftsmanship and the finest materials. Each wheel receives a multiple-point inspection to insure that our strict manufacturing tolerances are maintained.

The Future
Aerospoke always has an eye toward the future with new design enhancements. These enhancements are the result of user feedback and independent testing.
