Boras vs Everything else?

hello to all,

Looking to buy a set of Bora ultra 50 tubs,but in the back of my head i think that the V shape of the rims offers little to nothing from aero side in comparison with the rest of the competition rims being toroidal or hybrid,such as enves or zipps..
Are they worth to hit the trigger on them?Or should i choose a less fancier yet toroidal rim -even chinese make maybe-?

I weigh around 90 kilos.

I focus on the rim shape since there is no aero data or comparison chart for this specific model/brand.

Was there something that initially attracted you to the Boras?
