I'm still debating this. I'm really happy with the way my PT SL/RR 1.1 rides, and in fact it's a little comfier ride than the Fulcrum 1 in the back. The weight difference is something like 300g. I have every intention of duking it out for the win this Sunday in my "A" race.
If I had a pair of non-powertap Zipp 404's lying around I'd say it's a no-brainer and take the PT off the back. But I'm just not sure if it's worth it to throw the Fulcrum 1 on the back or not. I'm leaning toward having the data from the PT and keeping the Fulcrum 1 up front.
Guess I'm just not sure how much of a performance advantage there would be, if any. There would be the "these are my race wheels" placebo effect, though.
