Anyone running these? On Wiggle's interest free option, they're pretty light and have a nice wide rim (and sold as tubeless ready). Is there any stand out reason why not to?

Think these would go well on my CR1 SL and are a damn sight lighter than any deep carbon rim clinchers I could sensibly afford.

    They won't be the stiffest wheels out there, but they might be stiff enough if you are light and/or not too powerful.
    I wonder how much weight Novatec saved by drilling those indents in the free hub body... :wink:

    Sound like they may suit. At less than £15 a month on interest free I might take a punt...
