Pro-lite wheels: Bracciano or Luciano as training wheels?

Simon Notley

I'm after a replacement set of training wheels as my Campag Zondas have died after many miles in all weathers. I really liked them, but found them very hard (and expensive) to get spares for, so haven't got a great life out of them.

I can't really afford to pay out £400 for an equivalent replacement right now, so was looking for something broadly similar for cheaper (less then 250, preferably much less). Pro-lite seem to make some great value stuff, but I can't decide between the Bracciano (best price £240) and the Luciano (£120). there is a weight difference, but probably bearable given that my Zondas only weigh a little less than the Luciano. Anyone have any experience of these wheels, either performance wise or mechanically?

Interested to hear from anyone one this. My old Alex on my winter trainer will need replaced this year. 3 winters of heavy abuse.
Also thought about Planet X B's or some decent hubs built up on open pro's locally.

Here's a couple of links to previous threads about the Bracciano's
