Grahame every time i see you you seem to have a wheel issue

I have a 10% off offer on chainreaction (on top of the announced 10%) which brings the mavics to £689 - it ends friday midnight. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=30825

Don't forget the maggots

Sylv,

Thanks for the offer, but there is issue of coming up £689. I am definitely in saving up mode for the moment.

It is true that I seem to have a love hate relationship with wheels...

Ta,

Graham.

[Graham O]

getting back to the point...

Are deep dish wheels worth it. I have kinda got the impression that....

1) If you buy them with alloy rims, they are likely to be expensive and heavy / slow, but pretty..
2) If you buy carbon rims, they are likely to be fast, but a right pain to use, so are really only suited for racing.
3) everyone likes to chat about them...

If only I could try some, to sus out whether they are worth it...

PS - This is all idle banter, as my money is already allocated to mortgage, bills, hgousehold maintenance, childrens swimming, tennis, piano and violin lessons, and saving for retirement, oh, and saving for kids university and lastly my single solitory beer after cycling on a saturday.....(can't see one of those yellow face things with tears !!)

anyway back to the wheels - which do ya reckon then.....
