·Considering buying a set.
Rode Mavic Ksyrium SSC SL's for years as everyday wheel. I'm 150 lbs. soaking wet, didn't realize how stiff these wheels were or how much they beat me up on longer rides until I made a change this Spring. Both the SSC SL's and current wheelset (Shimano 7850 24c) had/have the same tire/tube/inflation combinations, so that wasn't the issue.
My concern with the Eurus is that for a guy my weight, I'll be reverting back to a workhorse of a wheel that will again beat the stuffing out of me after 50 miles or so.
Also, living in the Midwest, no mountains, but we have wind to spare. The SSC SL's would get a little dicey in 15 MPH+ crosswinds. Not sure of the spoke widths on the Eurus, but they're clearly bladed.
Any scrawny guys here ride these things regularly? Do tell.
