  • The mercury weight is from the Ison Distribution website. http://www.ison-distribution.com/ison/english/product.php?part=RMHAM716

    Wheelroom says the are 475g, so 5g heavier than the IRDs, I think. However they're about £15 cheaper.

    Sounds fair.

    40g for rim tapes
    20g for alloy nipples
    50g for front QR
    50g more for spokes if you want to keep the cost low

    and I'd be inclined to go with wheelsmith weight over distributor. so 20g more for rims

    But that's still only 1634g which is very good for a cheap lightweight wheel set.
