I am looking into getting a new wheel set, campagnolo scirocco 35. Am I currently riding on Shimano rs30. I am trying to figure out how the campy wheels compare with the Shimano ones I have. My goal is to get a new wheel set at about the same quality.

Looking through campagnolo's catalog it looks like the only main difference between the scirocco and the Zonda wheelsets is that the zions uses cup and cone bearings. Anyone know what this means and what the advantages are?

Thanks!

    Two main types of bearings in hubs as shown in this lovely picture: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/images/bear ... 00-270.gif

    There are advantages and disadvantages to both, but in reality both work just fine.
    Condor Super Acciaio, Record, Deda, Pacentis.
    Curtis 853 Handbuilt MTB, XTR, DT Swiss and lots of Hope.
    Genesis Datum Gravel Bike, Pacentis (again).
    Genesis Equilibrium Disc, 105 & H-Plus-Son.

    Mostly Steel.

    I've got a set of Sciroccos one of my bikes. Lovely set of wheels for the money, only problem is the weight. Zondas are famously bulletproof and popular, so I'd probably prefer those.
