Does anybody have an opinion on 12 spoke Corima
UL front wheel? Is 170 lbs too heavy for it? Thanks

I would go for sixteen spokes at 170. The deeper front wheels at sixteen spokes would be fine, except for crits. Corima does make a nice product, as I have been using their seatposts and frames for years.

I concur with bunnyman on this. 170 is a trifle heavy for only 12 spokes.

I don't think it so much a question of weight, but of power. You're probably too powerful for this wheel. It will be too flexible. (IMO).

Thanks--how at my "summerl" weight of 160. Does power
matter for the front wheel because I have a disc for the back.
