I ready to purchase one of these wheel sets .
Any recommendation ?
Thank you

How much do you weigh? I have the Vitesse wheels. I love them. I am currently 188 or so and have road raced and cyclocross raced these wheels. I also have Boyd Carbon tubular 38s and 50s. One of my friends has the Williams 30s and honestly, they weigh a lot more than what was advertized. Like 70 grams more without rim strips and skewers. He did have an issue with the front bearings but got them fixed.

All my Boyd wheels have come in right at weight or under. Zero issues. If I can cross race the Vitesse running Michelin Mud2s all season and still haven't trued them, I'd say they are damn near bullet proof. I will be cross racing the 50 tubulars in the fall. Currently, the Vitesse wheels have 700x25 Conti 4 season on them for all around road training.
