Entry level wheels - Which is better

[VolkAdik]

Hi peeps,

 

Just wanting to get an entry level wheelset,

 

Options are "ONLY" Fulcrum racing 5 or American Classics Victory 30.

 

Which would be the best option taking into consideration I weigh 86kg(working towards 75) and will be using it as a training wheels and no commuting?(Have RS30's for that)

I know Fulcrum very strong, not sure if they are "better" or stronger the AC's

Thanks, I see Shimano RS21's in classifieds too. How do they compare as well?

why not put in a lil more and go for the AC Aero 420's ?

Racing 5 is a solid training wheel, very good value for money. I was very happy with mine when I had them. They fall in the heavy but good category.

 

RS21 is a very good wheel, so long as you ignore the usual crap people post about proprietory spokes. I've owned more Shimano wheels than most people and have never had a problem with any of them, from cheapies like the RS21 right up to Dura Ace. 

 

AC I can't comment, never used them.
