    Price Paid:  $800.00

    Favorite Ride:
    Anything painful

    Bike Setup:
    Lemond tourmalet, FSA gossamer cranks,speedplay pedals, FSA RD420 wheels, shimano 105.

    Summary:
    These look amazing. 28mm deep for aerodynamics and the reliability and durability of aluminum. I coasted down my favourite hill at 78 kmph, 5 kmph faster than my old wheels.

    Strengths:
    Aerodynamics, bladed spokes, light 1640g, 28mm depth, hidden nipples.

    Weaknesses:
    Thenipples are hidden so you would have to take the tire off to true. But I haven't had to touch them and with the increase moment of inertia I don't expect to have to.
