I am thinking of purchasing one of these clincher wheelsets. I was wondering if anyone has ridden both wheelsets and if you could describe pros and cons of each wheel.
Thanks.

As with most wheels you will probably want to ride a tire that is the no wider than the maxium width of the rim of the wheel for the most aerodynamic benefit. If I recall correctly for the Nimble that will mean a 19-20mm tire. For the Jet it will mean a 20-23mm tire.
It seems silly to think of wheel selection in terms of tires, but the great thing about torroidal rim shapes is that they work with the wider, more comfortable and faster(lower RR) tires that people like to use. The Jets are a bombproof wheel, and proven fast.
I would choose them over the Nimbles any day of the week.
i use the jets, (90, not the 60), and love the wheel, nothing but good things to say about it so far.
