Soonnnnnnn!
Need to sort out the front end first. Trispoke is the obvs choice, but I'm not sure that something deep and spoked wouldn't be better value, offering much of the benefit more cheaply.
I was trawling the Time Trialling forum yesterday for some pointers, but it was hard to glean much useful info: you think this place can be partisan and entrenched?
I then need to decide on what wheel to skin: I'm pretty happy with the R501 I have on there at the moment. It would be nice to have a 23mm rim (currently 21.something), but bearing in mind my chainline (45mm), a new wheel looks a bit pricey for a modest gain. I suppose I could just get a new rim laced to the hub?
