Xero XSR-4

Price Paid:  $0.00 at Centre du cyclisme

Bike Setup:
Giant OCR 2

Summary:
Those are the stock wheels that came on my Giant OCR 2 (2006). I didn't think much of them at first but when I compared them against a much better set of wheels I started liking them more (or hating the expensif wheels). I did 6 time trials (always the same), 3 times with Easton Ascent II ($900 set of wheel) and 3 times with these and my time was ALWAYS faster with the XSR-4 wheels.

Strengths:
- They are fast (compared to Easton Ascent II anyway)
- probably cheap to buy
- Pretty strong wheels, they are still true and its been 2 years I got them (I'm only 145 lbs)

Weaknesses:
A little heavy but thats to be expected given the entry level wheelset

Similar Products Used:
Easton Ascent II, not impressed!
