Supurbe Pro track wheels -Help?
 
So my Superbe Pro track 28h hubs (Beautiful!!) got here and I have a question. I am definately going tubular with these wheels and I am thinking about building them up with Campy Record Strata rims (380 grams). Would these be strong enough for a 200+ lb rider? Or should I go with Mavic GP4 at 420 grams? What about heavier rims like Campy Omega 19's at 475 grams? Most of those rims are NOS from Nashbar and are priced very nice. Any more up to date rims that would work better? These would be track wheels only and will not see any road time. Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks

Either of those rims will do the job, and if they are only seeing track time, go with the Strata if you are lacing them 3-cross or use the GP4's for other lacing. The GP4's are bombproof rims and can remember alot of guys running them as road wheels in the glory days of tubulars. Ah, those were the days.
