Campy Vento vs Xero XR1

[tx_newbie]

Hi!

Does anyone have any experience (personal or heresay...even theoretical) RE: Campy Vento wheelset vs. Xero XR1? My current wheelset (2004 Campy Vento) runs smooth and true, but I'm looking for something abit lighter (hilly centuries and club ITT). I'm trying to stay under $250.

I've searched through these forums and have found info on each wheelset individually, but not comparatively; I'm also moderately light, at 155 lbs.

Thanks.

If you "upgrade", let me know if you want to sell the Ventos.

Well, I wouldn't consider the Xero's an 'upgrade' but a 'purpose-driven' switch-out (alittle lighter, alittle semi-aero). As an actual pack-racing upgrade, I am looking at Ritchey Protocols. The Ventos would stay as an everyday wheelset.

THanks.
