This is a very helpful thread for me that i keep coming back to. I'm trying to pick-off the low hanging fruit while I wait to buy the frame. The condition that my wife set was that I'd have to sell one of my bikes to finance this one. It's on Craigs and I'm waiting.
While I'm waiting: I can get Velocity Dyad rims for a third less than Mavic A719s. Are the 719s worth the extra dough?
