Question: I have heard of PowerTap hubs (this is a Pro+, with Garmin Edge 500 head) being problematic in the wet. Is this a big risk to my new wheel? What would you do?
The water issue was more of a problem with the older designs. I personally haven't had any problems riding in rain with any yet. I would ride it.
