Road Cycling - Anyone ridden the Campy Scirocco or Velomax Circuit wheelset?

Anyone ridden the Scirocco wheelset? I'm assuming it's pretty much your average training wheelset. I'm on Open Pro's now, any idea how they would compare. LBS owner loves his as a training set, has them on his C-40.

Haven't met anyone who's riden the Velomax Circuits. Any comments would be great

Thanks

Love my circuits. Spokes are we bit of pain to deal with, but I've only had to true them once and have beat the living hell out of them (in one specially good crash the wheel got hit by a chain ring. My tire and tube got sliced in half but the break surface only had 2 gashs and was still true). If velomax (or easton now) still does the wheel deal (Pro Race tires, tubes and rim strips for free) they're hard to beat for the price.

I've been trying to break a set of Velomax Circuits for over 3 years. (If they break my wife said I could get a set of Orions.... :D ) But I can't seem to get the job done. :(

When I started I weighed 250 and I ran over darn near every pot hole, railfoad tracks, and rough pavement I could find..... I'm down to 210 and those darn Circuits are still true. :mad: I can't even break a spoke!!! How am I ever gonna get my Orions??? :cry:

Thanks to both for the comments on the Circuits.

Anyone ridden the Scirocco's. I'm guessing not.

I've been riding Scirocco's for about 3 months. I've got no complaints. They're light, fast and strong - they've put up with commuting and training rides with no problem. I haven't knocked them out of true at all. I bought them because they were pretty cheap and I thought they'd be good enough, and they are. Never ridden on velomax wheels so can't compare I'm afraid.

PS did 37.4 mph on the flat on my scirocco's yesterday :-) so they're definitely not slowing me down.

I have been riding on the Sciroccos for about 5 months and about 2000 miles with no complaints. The bearings are real smooth and the wheel is as straight and true as day one. I tip the scales at 195. The Sciroccos came highly recommended by several wrenches at the local shop as the wheels give a pretty good bang for the buck. I have had great luck with Campy hubs on my other bikes, but this is my first set of pre-built wheels.

No problems at all with my Circuits. Great wheels.
