Carbon Fiber Wheels for Commuting to Work

Hi everyone,

I'm interested in getting one of the Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL3 bikes. I notice that they're using carbon fiber wheels. Will you ride those sort of bikes to work? I consulted with LBS and the guy said he wouldn't do that because carbon fibre wheels break easily when hitting curb/pot hole. Is this true?

I currently have Giant TCR Advanced 1 and has Mavic Ksyrium Elite wheel and it's pretty strong.

Thoughts?


Cheers,
Tommy
