considering the campag hyperon ultra wheelset?

[yamaha_mike]

tell me i am crazy for considering the campag hyperon ultra wheelset.

$2800

light - check
solid - check
no more crosswind interference (like with my Mavic SL's) - check

looking at wheels lately and living in NorCal with lots of hills and funky crosswinds swirlies etc., has me considering them.

however, i've never see anyone riding them - due to cost, i guess? - but even on the $6-8K bikes they just ride with mavics. i'm pretty sick of the aero wheels on descents

Just make sure you ask yourself before you buy how you and your wallet will feel if you box a $1400 wheel.
