New bike or upgrade current????
I have a dilemma, searching for new wheels, i started thinking about changing ride completely...
I ride a caad9 -5, which I like a lot, except for the wheels, and drivetrain looking to upgrade to fulcrum zero... And ultegra6700. Shooing around I fell in love with wilier Imperial....
Should I swap wheels/group or change ride?

If you like the CAAD9, why change? What has the wilier frame got that the CAAD hasn't, except novelty? If you have a good frame that you like, and is high quality enough to live up to the more expensive wheels and group, I'd upgrade. You end up with a higher spec bike for less money than you would if you bought a complete bike new .... unless there's a really keen deal available on the wilier.

Wilier is carbon frame... I know the caad9 is probably the best aluminum frame around and with an upgraded drivetrain and wheels should be as light...
