elj, how do those feel in a crosswind? my thinking is that the flat geography that makes aero wheels important also poses the crosswind dilemna to training wheels particularly in the winter/spring. i have no idea how those niobiums feel in the crosswind, but that might be something to consider.

for rims i was thinking dt swiss rr1.2 and maybe and sub the front to a rr1.1. one of the guys on my team trains on rr1.2 powertap. he seems to like them a lot and races the rear in crits.
