You are probably talking about Spinergy wheels. Expensive stuff and I don't think they are lighter than a nice set of conventional wheels.

yeah, Spinergy Rev-X. Awesome wheels, really fast. They don't make them anymore-stopped production early this year because they are too expensive to manufacture.

Replaced with the Carbon/PBO deep "V" wheel. It is actually a corima rim.

Or, perhaps you're talking about the Mavic quad-spokes? What are you watching on T.V. when you see these wheels? If these are the ones, they're scary fast. I had the opportunity to ride the track version of these wheels, and it was an absolute thrill.
