Prebuilt wheels are all fine and dandy if you couldn't be stuffed, well, getting a pair of wheels built, but otherwise they're expensive for what they are, aren't necessarily light or aero, so you're paying for convenience basically.

Plus, I hate being like eveyone else.

Check out these hubs for sex on a (quick release) skewer....

You can build these into a wheelset for the same price as Ksyriums but THREE HUNDRED GRAMS LIGHTER.


So whatchagunnado?
404's $2.5K give or take a few bob. 300Gms lighter than ksyriums???.....so that would be 1250g odd....for clinchers that will hold a 90kg er???. Unheard of...tell me more......(I can't open that link)
