I do 150-200 klm a week on my road bike. I've been resisting buying a set of training wheels but
after a year I'm starting to see signs of wear on my wheels - Bontrager Race-lite (20/24 spoke). I'm
no lightweight so I'd like to buy a set of wheels for everyday use and keep the Bontragers for
racing. I asked at Clarence Cyclery what they had for training wheels. the cheapest they could do
was a set of Mavics for $500. I know this isn't a cheap shop, but come on...
Any ideas of how much I should pay for a set of strong whels for a racing bike and where to get'em.
I don't want second hand.
Flame at will...
