Cole mangnesium wheels, anyone else tried 'em?
I went down to my LBS today looking to get a new wheelset, and walked out with a slightly used one. The store owner says that they were a grand brand new and that he only rode them for a month, which surprised me a lot considering that I only paid 350 fro them.
anyways, so far it seems they're definitely the best all around wheels i've ever had. just wondering if anyone else has any experience with them.

Throw the stick!!!!
Only Cole wheels I have experience with are the Cole Rollen's that came on my Kestrel. The rear wheel is the worst wheel I have ever owned, broke 7 spokes on the rear wheel during the very short time that I kept it on the bike. However, the front wheel seems to be fine.
