Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer?

Deep V's Or No?
Fuuuuu, I need some help deciding on what type of wheelset to get.


Black Velocity Deep V's, or Sun M13 II's?
I'm only 130 pounds so I don't need deep v's and I think the Sun M13's look nice but a lot of people have been telling me to get deep v's.

Any reason why?
What do you think and why?

No offense, but c'mon.

Jelly. I am eating some Baked Jalapeno Chips and drinking a beer while I wait for this video conference to start. A burrito is my future (after the conference).
