Which wheels for a heavier rider (90kgs and falling) for everyday use, sportives, climbing etc etc?

    Hmm.......this is a tough ono to pick.

    Fuclrum's are known for being stiff and fast, the Campag Zondas are good too though have ultra aero spokes and are very comfortable.

    What colour is your bike?
  • Fulcrum 1s are the Equivalent of Eurus.

    Fulcrum 3s, Zondas.

    The only different between Campagnolo and Fulcrum is the lacing and decals. So just prefer the ones you like the look of the most.

    The bike frame is a black and white Specialized Roubaix. If it was red it might be an easier choice..

    If it's a black and white carbon bike the Fulcrums would be my choice.

    The Fulcrums are great for heavier riders - I have got some Racing 3s and they are a fantastic set of hoops.

    if budget isn't a concern - then the fulcrums are the ones to go for - as said earlier - they ar a notch above the zondas - and the red ones will add a dash of colour to your roubaix!
