Hi all
Looking for some advice, looking for a set of wheels for racing with. Have a set of alexrims on my allez and want to get something better for when I race. Looking for light and quick to help me up the hills, also looking to have different cassette on the back more attuned to race setup than training commute.
I have been looking for a while and looked at Mavic, Shimano and Fulcrum looking to spend no more than £300 for both wheels. Rs80's have had good reviews and so have the 6700's. Also long term reviews have been very positive, the mavic and fulcrums at this price range had good reviews however long term people reported cracking and broken spokes.
so what do you think ? my view is probably the RS80's but the 6700's are slightly cheaper.
Either way have to save up so probably by time have the money there will be new stuff :-)
Cheers
