Do you all use race wheels or no? Personally, I never have - but I am starting to consider it.
I always ride on the same set - a set of Superteam (60/88mm) with Continental Grand Prix 5000 tires. If it's relevant, my FTP hovers around 2.8 w/kg and my A-race next year is Nice.
I've debated putting my stock wheels back on and getting a higher end set of wheels - possibly a 60/90 or 60/disc setup. If I do buy new wheels, I'm looking to spend no more than $1500 for them altogether.
Thoughts on riding with my stock wheels (I ride a 2018 Cervelo P3) and using race wheels/upgrading to new ones, or just continuing to do all of rides and races on my Superteams? They may be a bit janky comparatively, but they seem to get the job done. I just don't want to drop $1500 for marginal gains, or switch out my wheels every time I race - which is probably 6-8 times per year - if it's not really beneficial for training/racing wheels. Thank you.
