Love it. Another purveyor of the hype.

<sarcasm>Yep, those time trial guys sure do go slow on those heavy disc wheels....</sarcasm>

Your body, in top shape will make you faster. Every time. Spend your money there.

I've lost count of the number of times I've seen riders on state-of-the-art equipment, super light wheels and all, dropped in the first mile by guys on heavier, older bikes who were quite simply more fit.
