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

which wheels would you keep?

i'm building my wife's bike, and i've got a choice of wheels (she doesn't care):
1) new bontrager selects w/ bontrager race lite tires
2) shimano 550s (could use the above tires or buy new ones) w/ 3,000 miles on them

which would you keep?

the other will go on a bike i will sell.

thank you so much!
