Which wheels?

Im on my 2nd set of Kysrium Elites on my road bike and have found them to be good wheels, reliable and very sturdy.  A few years ago they were rated very highly but I dont know how they compare now or to the Planet X.

The Elites I have are not aero, so you may find the Planet X are more suited for the flat? 

Are you talking about the PX 50/50 tubulars, or the more expensive 52 mm clinchers?  I wouldn't bother with tubulars unless it's solely for racing, and even then the difference is marginal these days.

I have to 60mm clinchers, which can be 'interesting' on a windy day. The 52s may be a bit easier, and of course it is weight dependant.

To be honest, they're probably the same as their model-b wheels, with a carbon fairing. Fairly solid and they make a great noise. The Model-Bs are also worth a look - sub £150 and similar weight (~30mm profile).

I have kyserium elites, but I nicked them from the OH when he up graded

I have the Guru 50s from PX. They're a fantastic wheel, really light but you pay for it with a bit of flex if you're big and really hammering. Fortunately I'm little and can't pedal for toffee

These ones  They weren't bad in the wind either.

I am pondering wheels too

I want a set of 40mm deoth wheels for lanza this year and a disk/ deeper front for other races without rhe hills and wind

Cant afford both..... So i have bought nothing

Please sir! (puts hand up). I distinctly remember you showing off pictures of your power meter like a first-born. That is why you can't afford it!

I think TigerFrog do some 40mm wheels, or there is always the Zipp 303s.....with a DiscCover for the rear?

I would add, whatever you do, stick on another 60 quid for ceramic bearings, I have been REALLY impressed with them.

oh dear......

the things you do / say after x pints 

Cat do you know much about the Tigerfrog wheels? Temptingly priced... 

I quite like the look of the deep Tiger frog wheels. They're just down the road from my mum so I may pop in for a look.

As for ceramic bearings, are they just a straight swap? Where would I get them from?

I do quite fancy a disc rear.

What would be the best choices for Outlaw & the half?

I don't know much about anything Eng....

However, Mr Eng will hopefully back me up here. If you know the size of the bearing, you can get ceramic replacements from SKF or a similar bearing supplier.

At last, something truthful on here
