Summary:
I decided to upgrade from the Shimano RS10's that was on my bike when i purchased it. The bike store let me upgrade after riding on the RS10's for almost 30 days. I made the switch since I had Ultegra componants and this would give me full Ultegra, and I wanted a little better wheelset. Well this was a great move; while only about a 1 pound difference in weight, I feel these wheels get to speed much faster than the RS10's and rides a truer. I also have noticed significantly less noise with the switch. They are not close to carbon and not superfast, but for a rider like me they are grea. I probably am never going to make the switch to carbon wheels (or even change this wheelset for that matter); these wheels are great.

Strengths:
- Gets to speed quicker than stock RS10's
- Truer ride
- Handles well

Weaknesses:
I wish Shimano would classify their wheel sets better. Are these as good as RS 30's?
