bontrager wheel set

issacforce

hi all i am thinking of buying a set of bontrager race wheels for 350 quid has anybody got any views on them or any other wheels i mite like too think about cheers

Are they "Race" at that price???

They also do a Race lite and X-lite...which would no doubt be lighter.

I have the Bont.... "race" on my bike, they run fine and true,,,but was planning to upgrade with Mavic Ksyrium or such for around £300+ at some point...

the only reason thinkin of buying bontrager is that have bontrager wheels on for last 5 years and had no probs with them so thought wud stick with what has worked well over the years. but will have a look at the mavics thanks

I agree Bontrager race are fine on mine, no problems at all...,but the "Race" appear to be under £200 a set at Evans and elsewhere,,which is why I questioned your pricing at £350 ???

thanks all did get wheels mixed up was race lite for350 not race

Even if these are Race Lite rather than Race, these still seem like a poor deal. Even a cursory Google brings them up at £232:

Hi Issac,

I'm picking up my new Trek 2.1 next week. I was planning to sell the Bontrager SSR wheels on ebay. They cost £180 new, but they're yours for £100.
