I am in the midst of a dilemma...
I have a classic Italian steel track bike as my daily rider. When I got the frame I built it up with whatever parts I had on hand to get it on the road quickly. Since then I've been swapping over piece by piece to Campy bits with my plan being to end up with a full-throated Italian build. I am about there with the exception of the seatpost & wheels.
Here's my problem - I've found Campagnolo rims & hubs that would build into the perfect wheelset to compliment the style of my bike. But, it will be a damned expensive project & will turn out a somewhat heavier than I'd like.
Or - I just ran across a generic Chinese carbon track wheelset with box section rims that is reasonably priced and very light. If I went with this, I will have to stick with these wheels til they die, and give up my original plan for who knows how long.
So what should I be? Italophile (to steal a phrase from Tejano Trackie)...or weight-weenie tightwad?
