tubs though which means faff (more than clinchers) .. do you need stiffness and aero?
-
Why not hold out for a proper lightweight wheelset? Get some Vittoria Crono tubs, 180g each which is there the real benefit of tubs is.
-
If traction is an issue, stiffer may not be better.
Without knowing the split of mass between hub and rim, you can't compare those wheelsets in terms of angular momentum.

Next question for the hive mind.
My Ryde Pulse Sprint wheelset, or Tao Geoghegan-Hart's Bontrager Aerolus 3?
Ryde Pulse Sprint - 1250g
Veloflex Record - 300g
Vredestien Latex Tubes - 120g
Total: 1670g
2014 Bontrager Aeolus 3 tubular - 1150g
Bontrager xxx - 260g
Vittoria Corsa - 250g
Total: 1660g
Actually now I've written it down it's a no brainer. The Bonts will be way stiffer and more aero.
