Looking at the specs, I could only find a small difference in the NDS or DS (don't remember) spokes between the current version of this wheelset and the Assaults. The older version appeared to use DT, so that perhaps explains the original price vs. the current lower price.
Hmm so it's not really a price discount is it? Just a bunch of marketing?
