Hi,
I'm a fulltime triathlete and only doing long-distance races. My goals for this and next year are qualification for Clearwater and Hawaii. To get these slots, I'm participating in quiet flat races and probably also in Cozumel. Hawaii and Cozumel are known to be windy. I'm wondering which rearwheel to buy, and I'm in doubt between the Zipp 1080 and 808.
What would you recommend me?
Are there any circumstances you'd rather want to ride a 808 instead of the 1080 as a rearwheel, or is the Zipp 1080 quiet handable in windy conditions?
I'm 160 lbs in weight. In my opinion the 1080 looks much nicer ;).
Thanks
