For the $, why not have a good wheelbuilder design and build a wheelset specifically for you? Better wheels, better hubs by far, probably cheaper as well. |

I'm not disagreeing, just curious about your opinion. Actually, many years ago Mavic used to make these great hubs, light and smooth and strong. I don't know how the hubs in the ksyriums are, however, I would guess that they don't spin smoothly. A lot of the wheelsets that are available now have rough spinning and poorly adjusted hubs. You can probably rebuild the hub, but, why would you spend a bunch of money on a wheel that has a poorly finished hub? For the price of ksyriums, you can get dura ace or campy hubs, nice rims, db or bladded spokes put together into a handbuilt wheel. If you want one of those factory wheelsets, you can get some for under $200. They are probably poorly finished and you'll have to touch them up yourself, however, they are cheap. But the ksyriums cost way too much. Andres |
