Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Flo 30 vs Pacenti SL23 build vs Boyd Vitesse

Well its snowing and I am bored so I decided to look at wheel sets. The Flo 30 look very interesting, so I thought I would compare them to other 23 mm wide wheel sets. Any opinions.

Given that the Flo 30s aren't available, no.

I like the November too. I think I liked the Boyds better graphically ie... they looked cooler. Since I was bored I started looking at other options. That led me to Flo 30. They look extremely cool and at $500 very reasonable. Pacenti sl23 also are interesting. I read about a 1420 gram build so I added it to the list.
