    Price Paid:  $850.00 at Ligero Wheelworks

    Favorite Ride:
    Amish Country night training rides

    Bike Setup:
    VeloVie Vitesse 300 SE, Sram Red

    Summary:
    I have two sets of these tubular wheels one set has 300 gram training tires glued on and the other set has a set of 215 gram Tufo HICC that my son has been racing on, an I’ve been riding and racing on as well. The wheels are getting lots of miles and have been great in every ride. The wheels are very firm and stiff but ride soft and smooth on the tar & chip gravel Amish roads in Ohio.

    Strengths:
    Lateral stiffness and durability, these wheels stay true. Weight for wheels with cassette, tires, and skewers is less than 5 lbs, 2,250g, that’s very close in weight to my Zipp 404’s.

    Weaknesses:
    Have not found ant.

    Similar Products Used:
    Open Pros, Ksyriums, , Zipp 404-303.

    Favorite Ride:
    Six Gap Century

    Bike Setup:
    Bianchi FG Lite, Tomassini Fusion and Premier Plus, all with Record 10.

    Summary:
    This wheelset has quickly become my "go to" wheel for any condition where a carbon rim is not desireable. (Weather, course, want smoother ride.)

    Strengths:
    Lateral stiffness and durability. With some Veloflex Carbons the ride is oh so smooth and fast.

    Weaknesses:
    None.

    Similar Products Used:
    Oh let's see: Open Pros, Ksyriums, Bonty Race X Lites, Neutrons, Speeddream AR-22, Zipp 808-404-303, and some Gigantex carbon hoops.
