Bontrager Race VS Mavic Ksyriums?
What am I gaining from spending an extra $900 for the latter?? Seriously how much faster would I be going?
McG that really doesnt explain anything. Do the wheels help you accelerate faster or is there actually a top speed increase?
Lighter is always faster. Rotating mass is the hardest to keep moving as opposed to static mass i.e. the frame. However, if you're talking about the Mavic wheels with the carbon spokes, stay away. They're only for pros or people with unlimited funds. The spokes and hub are proprietary. You need to carry spokes and the special tool. I ride Race Lites' on a Trek Madone 5.2. The new ones (2008) are very good. I had a problem with my '07 rear wheel and they replaced it under warranty. It was completely redesigned, different hub, spokes, and spoke pattern, but they kept the rim and the name. I like it.
