A couple general questions:
1) Can a bike with 700c wheels be changed to 650 wheels? If so, what
are the drawbacks?
2) What is the so-called problem of "toe overlap" when referring to
switching wheels
I am 5'4" 127lbs and looking for a wheelset for the IM Wisconsin. Taking
into account the windy course, I am thinking that deep-rim wheels are
not the way to go. Neither are the HED tri-spokes.
I am looking into these wheelsets:
Mavic Ksyrium SL (I like them but they dont seem very aero)
Mavic Cosmic Carbone SL (very cool, but are they too aero for me?)
HED Alps (very cool, but are they too aero?)
Zipp 303 (these seem pretty reasonable)
Zipp 404 (too aero?)
(any other suitable ones?)
I think I would prefer clinchers.
Which wheelsize should I go with, and which wheelset would best fit my
needs (I am short and light, but want to be faster than my current
Easton Vista wheels...)
Thank you for your help!
