Is there much climbing in the upcoming event? If so, go with the lighter wheels especiclly if it is a 200K.
thanks! concentrating efforts on this bike for now because it's in the best shape.
i am fairly light so usually 23's are fine for 95% of the riding i do. there's close to 10,000ft in this 200k, and i just swapped out wheelsets today and will be taking the updated rig out for a test ride tomorrow. i'm ballparking that i just took off 1.5 - 2lbs or so, should be a pretty big difference overall. the only worry is it might be on-off rain, so i'll really have to watch it on descents.
