I was looking for that perfect wheel. It took this amazing experience for me to realize that you cant have it all in one wheel.

I wnted an aero advantage. Your options are very very minimal and very expensive to find an UBER light deep wheel without compromising stiffness and durability. So after realizing this I thought about which wheel set can I get that is uber light and stiff. There were several options. At none of them had the aero that I was looking for. There are brands out there that claim to be deep, durable and uber light. Couple Chinese carbon wheel manufacturers advertise this and there are tons of happy customers but there are also tons of reviews about unsatisfied customers. I'm not willing to take a risk and blow money on a set that I don't trust.
