I'm happy with them

I have the Vuelta XRPs on my Kilo TT, I think they are better than the stock Kilo TT wheels, I prefer the low flange look and I'd ridden them on my conversion for a while and trusted them so kept them for the TT. I did switch out to a Dura Ace lockring and cog.

I've been looking for an excuse to buy a new wheelset instead of the Vueltas but I really can't find one.

2 thumbs up from the Scotsman!

i've been having a set for about 1 year now, no complaints
like them better than the formula deep v's

cool thanks you guys!

are they lighter than velocity deep vs?

hell nah, standard vueltas run about 3000 grams

the teams are definitely worth the extra $40

you know i am really confused

if you're a roadie, for 200 bucks you can get a bombproof awesome 1750g wheelset. So why the hell are these 2,100g ?!?

yeah, you can buy a fully geared rig for less than what most people spend blinging our their FG.

a rear road hub is not that much more technically superior than a rear track, though, and $160 shipped vs. $200 + shipping is still a bit of a difference

yeah funny thing is, for as much money as people spend blinging out their fixies you can get a LIGHTER geared road bike haha.

and i dont know how much are open pros with ultegra hubs, like 150-200? eitherway im sure it is fairly simple to get a nice pair of wheels for a road bike for like 150 from performance (their titans) or a similar retailer. They're just more commercialized and therefore the supply is greater, it just annoying anyway.

Because they are cheap.

They are heavier than your mom.
