Since my front wheel is fucked at the moment and I need to build it again I was just thinking out loud that with TABR being all on-road I could get away with using lighter and more aero wheels for a small speed increase on the flats.

I've already ordered a 511db rim but then the Enve rims caught my eye. But £1000 per rim is crazy.

How will you get on Radvist otherwise?
If you want moar aero than 511db then go with lightbicycle anything pricier than that is just for vanity. I reckon those DT rims would do the trick.

How did you kill the current rim? Is Velocity not covering it?

dafuq is radvist?

I'm more concerned with getting something cheap and having it go PING! mid-race. At least with Enve, for their price, they should fucking helicopter a spare in for me if I break it :D

Scooter cut me up and another bike hit the front wheel as I swerved to avoid it. Fun times.
