• Hey Jim,

    What's the difference between these:

    And the Miche on unmachined DP18s?

    Hi mate..

    These are built for track really although some have been bought for road! More superior MIche hub...These are same as Primato and branded by us. The rims are more aero and a higher quality spoke which a less in count...We do these in clincher and tub for the track league types.....Quick wheels and you would feel a difference compared to the cheaper versions....I race on these when outdoors..

    I think I've owned pretty much every type of wheel that Varno has sold so have quite a good context for comparison.

    Without a doubt, the Sapim spokes on the Alloy race make for a noticeably stiffer and more interactive ride than the Miche/DP18 combo.

    IMHO you can definitely feel a difference and the extra ££ was worth it for me.

    Its a shame Jim couldn't build me some track carbon clinchers because I'd be riding 6 sets of V-Sprint rather than 5 V-Sprint and one pair of Hed Jets ;)
