Price Paid:  $534.00 at Gotta Ride Bikes.com

Favorite Ride:
Tahoe Sierra Century

Bike Setup:
Tested on three bike set up. Litespeed Tuscany, Dura Ace triple. Felt, Dura Ace Double FSA compact crank. De Rosa Primato, Ultegra.

Summary:
I guess I would be considered a large rider at 6 foot 2 inches and 190 pounds. I have put 500 miles on the wheels and found them to spin up very rapidly. I have a set of Mavic Ksyrium SL wheels and the Spinergy Stealth SS wheels are much stiffer and have no flex with my larger body weight and they weigh only 50 grams more than the Ksyriums. (Stealth SS = 1740gm, Ksyrium SL = 1690 gm).

My opinion is that the Spinergy Stealth SS wheels are equal in overall performance if not greater in performance on flat rides. Climbing performance the Spinergy Stealth SS wheels are more responsive out of the saddle because of their stiffness. Overall climbing performance there is no difference. So far I am very pleased with the Spinergey Stealth SS.

Strengths:
Spins up very fast. No flex. Light for carbon aero wheels that are not full carbon.

Weaknesses:
Stiffness of wheels produces a stiffer ride.
