I've had great luck with these wheels this season:

the weight, durability and price all make them a big winner. In my opinion, that's where you'll actually notice the weight change.

I've seen them on morlands, and sparkplugs bikes as well as others. I can't justify dropping 400 dollars on a set yet. Maybe if I could get 250-300 for mine. I wonder if a local shop could come close to that price..

What is the weight of the shimano zee cranks? They can be had for about $100 at crc.

Last years saints for around 200
RF atlas for well under 200

How about truvativ descendants? (Also under 200)

Although these are all crc prices, rumour has it a certain local shop price matches them.

938 grams for the zee. For 100 bucks that seems pretty good

Ken is a baller when it comes to skimping weight.
