Planet X Pro Carbon Tubular 50 wheelset

[Darkmarkster]

Thinking about getting this wheelset for my Madone 4.9 when it arrives.

Does anyone currently have this wheelset that could give some heads up on how it rides?/quality/weight/stiffness etc.

Any info is much appreciated.

your bike looks awesome what are they like when climbing out of the seat,do you get much flex in the wheels?

round dorset you get alot of chances to test a bikes stiffness up hills, and the wheels have no flex in then while climbing and sprinting.

they allow you to be a attacking when you see a hill

turn it into a fixed or something

tri bars in London traffic would turn into long Lance's to be used to chase other pedestrians
