Thanks for the list. Quite helpful.

My front/rear combo comes in at 1765 grams.

Compared to the lightest combo I would ever consider (Zipp 909, I actually wouldn't consider it because of price, but anyway): 1540 grams.

I can live with that extra 1 pound (wheel difference: slightly more than 1/2 pound. All those dollars, more than $1000, still in my pocket brings me to 1 pound). :)

It gets quite interesting when you bnegin to quote wheel combinations as my short list above gives you 11424 different wheel sets. Decisions decisions, decisions....

Math: 136 possible rear wheels x 84 possible front wheels = 11424 (13 rear wheels in 4 types (650/700/clincher/tub) = 52 + 21 aero rear wheels in 4 types = 84 x 21 aero front wheel sets in 4 types)

I would think that the problem here is not mathematical, but logical. Most people with 700c wheeled frames don't consider using 650c wheels, as the look of a nice racing machine with brake calipers outfitted with drop-bolts is plain ridiculous. Similarly, very few people (I would hope!) ever tried to cram a 700c wheel in a frame that's designed to run 650c ...

I'd go for 3 types, at most, myself.
