Your definition of nothing and mine are quite different. Try to lose 55-75 grams anywhere else on a single wheel (hub, spokes, nipples, skewers) and let us know how much it cost you versus the $0 cost of going with an XR-200. However, if lightweight isn't your goal, there's no point to using the XR-200.
