Lovely wheels, stiff and fast, made for relaxed riding as well as racing!
This excellent set of carbon wheels, is the upgrade I put off for too long. I have now cycled over 2500K with them and the cycling is a world of difference. I was still riding on a set of aluminium Zondas (which I can also recommend to anyone by the way). In terms of weight, I gain little to nothing, the difference is mainly in stiffness and maintaining pace. I notice the stiffness mainly when turning on, climbing standing and riding corners at high speed. If there is any flexibility in the wheel at all, it is minimal. Nowhere does my wheel run into a brake pad, whereas I like to adjust my brakes 'tightly'. I regularly ride solo rides where you really notice whether you can easily maintain a certain pace. Of course, I cannot determine this objectively, but that there is a difference is certain for me. I get up to speed easier/faster, sit down and can keep going. We don't need to talk about the looks, the photo is proof of that. One point of interest is the bulge of the tyres. I used to ride on 28mm tyres on my Campangnolo Zondas, but with these wheels that doesn't fit. I had to go back to 25mm, because otherwise the rear tyre would hit the (direct mount) brake.
