I own a set of stock wheels and a set of Flo 60’s. I’ve owned the Flo 60’s for a few years, but only ride the stock wheels in group rides and training. I threw a wheel cover on the rear 60 and left it on for the 2 to 3 70.3’s I do each season.
A fellow athlete told me that I should only ride stock in training because it makes you stronger and you get a bigger lift at races. I also thought it makes sense to avoid damage to my race wheels.
I was wondering how many ride on their stock versus race wheels. I pulled my Aerojacket off tonight and I’m seriously thinking about going balls deep with the 60’s for some local KOM’s.
Should I keep riding stock or just ride my 60’s? I’ve always felt they should be rode to get my money and enjoyment out of them or am I sacrificing harder training if I can ride just as hard on stock?
