Power tap wheel set
Iam looking to get into power training. I want a set up for training, as bullet proof as possible in an alum clincher rim set.
Could you guys post a few options I should consider and what device I need to capture the data?

Email Psimet. He built a set of wheels for me that have been bulletproof. DT RR585 Rims, 28 count DT comp spokes, with White Industries H2 Silver Hub in the front. PT Pro SL+ with 32 count spokes in the rear. Not the lightest setup, but if strength is you concern, I can testify to this build being tough as nails.

I trust one of the builders at my LBS and so got some Kinlin 270's from Bikehubstore.com along with a front hub and had then build up a 24F/28R set with DT competition spokes. Ride wicked nice and weigh about as much as my Ksyrium Elite wheelset.

Lots in development for new products and services, going into distribution, and building more wheels than I ever have. Leadtimes are greatly reduced now. ....just sayin....

Not wanting to make this an ad, but....been focusing on reducing that. I am now full time on wheels instead of doing 2 full times jobs.
