Hello
I bought some XERO wheels for 80 notes from the wooly hat shop, light, fewer spokes and nice wheels for road work, also bought some WTB Slickasaurus tyres, 1in, fairly slicks from Chain Reaction.
Makes a real difference, add some bull horns and maybe a adjustable stem and you can happily ride om the road well.
Youll need a new casstte also, but then you can just swap the wheels over as required,
I manage to ride 10m TT courses in 33 mins with the new set up

Is this the Xero Transalp set? I've been looking for a set of black 26" non-disc wheels to stick on a bike I'm rebuilding and these are the most promising ones I've found so far - are they worth the money?0
