IAmCosmo- You didn't sound like a jerk but I do average 20mph on my 20-40 mile rides. My speed only dips below 20 on climbs. I'm not interested in any aero benefits cause at my size the bike can be the most aero on the planet, but it's no good if you have a giant sail like me piloting it. I just like the look of the deeper carbon wheels so it's purely a cosmetic issuse. I will look into the soul wheels I didn't know they made an aluminum wheel that deep. Thank you for the suggestion.
