You must not know that many road cyclists. "that they can get" is pretty ambiguous.

Anyway, the context is a wheel around 50, 60mm deep and duke asked about a 150g difference. You told him if it feels lighter the rider will make it go faster. I disagree in this and many cases.....including using the wheel we are talking about (~404) vs about as light a wheel as one can build. Go seek out the writings of poertner on the testing done for light v aero....including some blind testing. Based on what you are writing it doesn't sound like you did that from when it was brought up earlier.

I I was on the fence but am starting to believe what others are writing about trolling.
