Thanks guys. Os, opinions on both ends of the spectrum.

Type of riding I do? training rides alone, some group rides where I barely manage to cling on to the group [and often get dropped too], and some long rides. Any advantage a new wheelset can give me would be welcome.

Like I said, I know that aero AND light is carbon, which is both out of budget as well as unsuited for our roads. So, have to decide between the light weight alloy versus the heavier aero alloy wheels.
