so $500 midrange wheelsets...
alright i hate to continue posting about the same thing but now i'm trying to compare the Easton ea90 with the ROL race sl. The ROL seems to get outstanding reviews, but im looking to see what some of you all know about these wheelsets.
Thanks!

I've had my Race SLs for @4 months and love them. They do everything well and really have no shortcomings. Stiff, light-ish (mine weigh 1540 observed) and rock solid under my 180 pounds. ROL also handbuilds these wheels HERE.
The hoops are Kinlin Nio30, spokes are DT Aerolite and the hubs are ROL housebrand, but they are every bit as nice as anything out there. They are dead ass smooth!
For the $, they are pretty hard to beat. A couple of my teammates are on them and love them as well!

I plan on getting DT Swiss 1.1 rims, laced to Campy Record hubs from Excel sports. Way nice for around $500.
