CSN Superleggera 82/101
Quote | Reply
I have signed up for Roth 2017 and am looking to get myself some aerowheels.
I had planned to be patient and wait out a Hed h3 front wheel and a disk off ebay when a good offer presents itself.

Then I saw these CSN Superleggera 82/101 on Ribble here: http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/...whls-sl-82-101-tubs/

I know they will be chinese wheels, and I know they are Planet X knock offs too, but for $320 for the pair they seem pretty damn good!

Does anyone have any good opinions about them? For me the disadvantages are that they are Tubs, not great braking surface, probably catch the wind, but the price pro might overrule those cons.

I mean you're going to have to factor in the price of someone gluing your tubs then, plus carrying a spare tub instead of just an innertube. Probably adds about $300 to the price (3 good tubs and a gluejob), doubling the initial price. For $600 you can find some chinese clinchers that have a bit more of a modern rim profile (better in cross winds), and even alloy/carbon ones if you don't trust the braking surface.
