Tri-spokes or Deep Rims?
I'm trying to figure out what wheelset to buy and I can't decide between tri-spokes or deep rims (like Zipp 404's). Any ideas?

Well get specific on what sort of racing you are doing, what speeds you average currently, your aspirations etc. Do you do road racing as well? (the Zipps could come in handy for road racing as well)

The Zipp 404s are a great set of wheels though! I'd go with those. Check out the Reynolds as well. They make some nice deep dish rims.
