Should you choose wheels that enhance your strengths or your reduce your weaknesses? Consider a awesome climber who is weak at TT, does he use a ultra light wheel or super aero one during a long rolling RR? Can wheel selection “normalize abilities” in that the climber could choose to weaken his climb by using a heavier aero wheel because he is such a good climber already so the change still works better for him?

A person with a huge FTP but a crappy sprint may want the ultra-light quick-accelerating wheel even with a ding on the whole race equation?
