    I've never seen a wheel that was not all round so I guess they must all be good.

    Couldn't resist..

    Serious now. I can't categorically say what the best allround wheels are but I got some Reynolds 32 tubulars this year and I am very happy with them. The 46 T's might be the better allround wheel but I live somewhere hilly and wanted to go for the extreme light weight ones. Price is about what you require if you manage to get a discount.

    BTW I the am same height but about 10 kgs heavier.

    Really worth a look- very underrated


    Ok, so if these wheels are so much lighter than other similar wheels, what's the trade off? It must be reliability and robustness. How do these wheels stand up to longer term use? Does anybody know?
