    Bottom Line:   
    I just got my pair today and I am doing the “Three Day Program” on the wheel mounting (this is my first tubular so I figured I should do it right). I haven’t ridden these things, but the first thing that I noticed out of the box is, “Damn! These things are light!” Well… light compared to my Vector Pros, I’m sure there are lighter rings out there. Can’t wait to tackle the hills on these hoops.

    Strengths:    Very very stiff ride when sprinting and taking corners over 30mph

    Weaknesses:    need a wad of $100 bills to get them

    Bottom Line:   
    These wheels are very easy to TT up hills and fast blazing down!! I would, however, use these for special events only due to the high cost--boy there a joy to ride though.
