Poll: Do you train and race with the same wheelset?

I just splurged on a pair of Zipp 404s for racing, and I'm interested to know how many of you use wheels like this for training, too.

????? Even profs don't train with Zipp404!!!!!!!!!!

Buy a cheap wheelset of $200 or something (Campy Scirocco?) to train on.

what is the advantage of using diferent wheels for training ??

the advantage (when you have such an expensive wheelset) is not scre*ing your wheelset!

why do you want to train with zipps? it isn't interesting whether your training speed is 1km/h faster or not.....

and you can use a zipp404 wheelset for years, when you be carefull with it.

I know you have a set of Boras, so what wheels are you using for training?

I love bike stuff. This is my racing bike, but I don't use it much...

-Colnago C40 BStay
-Record 2004+Carbon crankset+Carbon bottlecages+Tit. cassette
-Campagnolo Bora G3 wheelset 2003
-Deda Alanera bar
-San Marco Era Composite saddle
-Shimano Dura Ace SPDSL+SHR-214

Now I'm looking for a Carbonissimo frame (I know it is sick)


My training/normal bike:

-D2 Alu frame + carbon fork
-Wheelset: Fir rim, (the cheapest) Shimano Sora hubs, alloy spokes
-Sora + 105 combi groupset
ITM 330 bar/stem/seatpost

Bought is for $500!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I haven't had any problems with it.

See my new post on FIR wheels.

I have Bontrager race x-lites that I use for racing and training. If I'd have invested the close to $1K for a set of Zipp 404's, I'd save them for race day. Just my opinoin, save the spokes for race day.
