hi everyone -
am looking for a versatile race wheelset (clincher) with aluminum brake tracks and have got a line on the above. the hed website ain't great, but from what i can tell the flamme rouge is just their lightweight version, correct? ie., with lighter hubs?
i suppose 6/9 might be a little bit deep, especially on the front, but i'm 6'0 and about 165-170 at race weight, so i'm not too worried about control. i live in a hilly area, so weight is sort of important but i've got old, old training wheels at the moment so anything will be an upgrade.
it's a 10-speed compatible set, and i still run 9-speed, so i guess i'll want a spacer.
finally, it's a 23mm rim. anyone know if that'll be a good fit in an old aluminum cervelo soloist?
