    Which wheels are better?

    Not sure how high up the rankings the Fulcrums are, as I avoid and know nothing about them, having witnessed a couple of fulcrum failures. Of the other 2, the ksyriums are far better than the ultegras. Mainly because they are much lighter and weight on wheels is where it matters. Also because I...

    Wanted SR Royal handlebar stem 80mm
