I bought time attack wheel tape from bikebandit.com they are for motorcycles but I'm sure it should be ok. I'm kinda scare to put them on since I can't even draw a round circle.

EAS does offer TA rings for VB3's and V710's. I would check with them for photos.

We have put a Time Attack ring on a V710 before, but it's a bit more difficult because our TA rings were really meant to put on the CSL style wheels (VB3's) because the outside lip of the wheel is really flat... The V710s don't have that flat lip, but here's the best we could do with it:

thanks brandon...I was just curious since the surface on the lip is not flat and wasn't really sure how to attack since I've never done pin stripping. I guess as long as I follow the curvature of the wheel with the edge of the tape it should be a perfect circle. Seems to me like I"ll figure it out as I do it.
