Be honest' date=' in SA racing, does it realy give you that much benefit over a top end alu wheel?

Hy wil iets se en hy gaan dit se, praat maar aasvoel die raasvoel.

 

My vel is dik.

 

Maar serious, ek het vir my 404 clydesdales gekoop, was nie so impressed nie, oorweeg om hulle te verkoop

I don't think I am sexy enough for 50mm rims, and I get blown around badly enough even on a standard wheelset, so when I wanted a Christmas present I went for the more obscure option of HED Ardennes which weigh 1350 grams or so, and are 23mm ... wide. They look almost like 29er wheels. HED argues that they are more aero than standard clinchers because the tire doesn't bulge out from the rim like a light bulb, so you get more laminar airflow. I doubt I'll notice. Kevin at BMC has just finished building a Powertap hub into the rear one, and is putting Stan's yellow tape on as we speak. First ride this evening in the howling South-easter.pistadex2008-12-11 05:49:00

Just how much difference can the two options make?

 

Wthout the benefit of experience, I can't comment with any authority but it just seems so pointless.

 

I think I agree with Mampara. It's all nonsense. Ride a metal bike etc.
