Wow. I'm trying to lose 1/2 pound on my bike to break the 16lb barrier and those SL's
would add 1/2lb to it, but damn! 52mm AND Mavic for $1K? Pretty damn tempting.
I see that 1300g/50+mm carbon wheels "do" exist,
but I'd have to drop 3 grand on them (I'll save that for an uber-bike).
Oh where oh where are my 1300g'ish wheels for under $1.5K that I can put on a $700. bike! Woe is me, woe is me!
