Crank vs wheels
First world problems:
My current wheels are a set of hand built (by myself) Velocity A23 / 105 5700 / Salim 2.0/1.75/2.0 black + black brass nipples. 32h of course. The weight is a reasonable ~1850 grams.
My nearly new FSA gossamer crank (bb30) weighs about 800g from what I've seen reported.
If you could upgrade either, which would it be? I've been itching to build a lighter set of wheels, probably 24/20h with some alloy hubs and pacenti sl23's.
On the other hand, I've seen a few carbon cranks that would save not as much weight, but cost less to exchange. The bling is a factor, the gossamer isn't he prettiest to me.
I weigh about 160 lbs, fyi.
Thoughts?
