Ksyrium Equipe v. Campag Zonda

I have a new bike (Canyon) on order and it comes with Ksyrium Equipe wheels. I have a set of almost new Campag Zondas from my old bike sitting around and I'm tempted to put them on the new one (so I can sell the Equipes as 'almost new' to be honest). Would this be a mistake? I liked the Zondas a lot and they're very light. My mechanic friend always rates Ksyriums and thinks I should keep 'em on the bike . But he has an anti Campag thing goin' which drives me nuts.
Any advice appreciated!

Sorry but the zondas are infinitely better. They are lighter, stronger and have better build quality. I just got a set of fulcrum 3 (aka zonda's for non campag kids) on my Canyon.

Thanks. I think I will swap the wheels over and keep the Ksyriums for my son's next bike. I think Zondas are under-rated. They're quite light at 1555g for the money as well as being well built.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
