was wondering if I'll see any benefits in using bladed spokes?
If you were racing at the level where the few Watts CX-Rays/Aerolites would save over Comps mattered, you probably wouldn't be using XR31Ts :)

The real benefit of aero spokes is ease of building. Not that building with round spokes is hard.

I'd go for some decent quality double butted round spokes, Sapim Race or DT swiss competition.

I'm planning on rebuilding my road wheels. They are currently Archetype's on DA9000's (24/28) and I'll be rebuilding on to Kinlin XR31T's. I'm after advice on spokes. I've always used DT comps in the past, but was wondering if I'll see any benefits in using bladed spokes?
