Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

HED Jet 60 Vs. HED Alps?? Which?

I am very unsure of which I should pick. Anyone ridden both and would like to grant me their ideas of the ride ? Please. What are the current Pro's and Con's of both sets?

what kind of price are you getting on the jets? i was considering those, but my LBS steered me towards a different wheel. the reason they gave was because the carbon section is nothing more than a fairing that provides little - if any - extra rigidity.
the alps are a better wheel, apparently, but i went with a totally different brand in the end.
