    Not sure about shiny myself, white would be ok.
    I've got some cheap alu prime wheels and the logo is a bit more discreet...

    Decals are removable anyway so if you don't like the look of them after purchase then it's easily solved.

    Mine on the TT bike are Prime Black which I think are the same price?
    I ride a bike. Doesn't make me green or a tree hugger. I drive a car too.

    Yeah they are, just wondered what general opinion in the shiney ones are.

    How do you find the wheels?

    I got those wheels. The stickers looked better than I expected so I kept them on. When they get tatty I'll take them off and keep the wheels naked.

    They're an ok wheelset. I'll be honest while they look good I didn't notice any big or real improvement using them...the same with another set of cheap 50mm carbons a few years back.

    With my 62mm reynolds strike however I noticed a big and noticeable difference, maybe you do get what you pay for up to a point performance wise. Luckily I got those at less than half RRP so was pretty happy.
