As I have not ridden the wheels yet I cannot say. They are definitely lighter than my askiums, and the hubs roll much smoother than the aksiums on the stand. Give me a few minutes to go dial in the brakes here and I will have some initial impressions to report...BRB!


EDIT: Wow are these stiff! There is an overpass not far from my house and I went over there and did it in my usual gear and found myself in too small a gear! The responsiveness to accelerations is amazing. Cruising around the block I didn't notice any difference in harshness, but then the allez frame is a stiff aluminum frame similar to the caad9, so perhaps I won't notice the harshness of the wheels. as opposed to someone on a carbon frame. The hub noise didn't bother me at all. It really does sound similar to a chris king hub. I will do a proper ride and proper ride report tomorrow. No time to do a real ride today unfortunately.
