Apart from the spoking pattern, is there any difference in them, given similar weights and that Campag make Fulcrum wheels?
It's just a hill. Get over it.

    Shimano fit Zondas are also an option just to stir up the hornet's nest of groupset crossover.

    Also an observation that may or may not be relevant. The G3 spoke pattern of the Zonda rear wheels usually means that if you suffer a spoke failure then you're stuck with a pretzel and a long walk home. The Fulcrum rear wheels are not quite so idiosyncratic in their spoke distribution so may be less of a problem in that respect.

    The Fulcrums have white hubs which look awful IMO and so I'm getting the Zondas to put on my shimano equipped bike. I know I'll probably burn in hell for it but i dont care.
