Spinnekop Posted August 12, 2008 Share Had a set for a year. STUNNING, STUNNING, STUNNING. Awesome wheelset. Bullet proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaskar Posted August 12, 2008 Share Depends what that price is? At full retail they are almost R30k, so in that case i would say no, go for the Lightweights. But if you an get them in good nick at a price under R20k, i would say yes. They are amazing wheels to ride, and they make any bike look fast!

carlo_sg Posted August 12, 2008 Share what about: Mavic Cosmic Carbone Ultimate 40mm 1185gEaston EC90 Aero 60mm 1370g Both around R10,000 cheape I heard somewhere, you should spend about 1/3rd on your frameset, 1/3rd on groupset & 1/3rd on wheels. So if you riding R30,000 wheels will the sum of your bike be R90,000! or are you fitting them to an old Peugeot 12 speed - which will look stoopid...carlo_sg2008-08-12 01:28:47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaskar Posted August 12, 2008 Share I know of a pair of the older Boras (not the Ultra's) going for R12000 if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Posted August 12, 2008 Share I know of a pair of the older Boras (not the Ultra's) going for R12000 if you are interested. Thanks for the offer but i know myself.

KeithW Posted August 12, 2008 Share Bora Ultras Rule !!!! I have a set on my bike and they are the ultimate !The only downside is that you cant put a power tap hub in them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaskar Posted August 12, 2008 Share but you can put an SRM or Quark onto your crankset! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudsimus Posted August 12, 2008 Share They are not worth the price. Rather spend a little more and get the LW's. or a whole lot less and get the Fulcrums or ITM wheels, wich are both almost identical to the Bora's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaSH82 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Damn nice wheels... wish i could ride on a pair... even if it was just for a weekend.. LOL.. or a day for that matter... Not sure i would pay 30k though... that is a bit excessive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
