Hi All,
I wanted to get some people opinions on if it was a better move to upgrade my bike frame or get a new wheelset first. I currently have Cannondale CAAD9 6 that I purchased about 4 years ago. (http://www.roadbikereview.com/cat/latest-bikes/road-bike/cannondale/caad9-6/prd_419158_5668crx.aspx) It has all components, wheels, etc that the bike came with. I'm just a weekend and evening cyclist that probably averages 50 - 100 miles a week, and average about 20 mph. I don't do any competitive cycling, but I am really interested in getting an entry level priced aero wheelset. I'm not looking to spend much more thank $1,000 on wheels.
I'm looking at either the Shimano WH-RS80-C50-CL or the Mavic 2012 Cosmic Carbone SL.
[SIZE= 12px]Any thought on what would be better (upgrading to a carbon frame or getting a new aero wheelset) would be appreciated.[/SIZE]
