Subject: RE: Aero wheels for lighter riders or light weight wheels Absolutely YES! There's a real benefit to all riders and almost all courses. The only time an aero wheel may not be to your advantage would be a ride/race with LOTS of vertical and very technical, but then you wouldn't ride a tri bike either...
My wife is significantly lighter than you and rides HED Jet6/9 on her tri bike and Zipp 808's on her road bike (for racing... normal box rims for training ).
Out of that list, I would pick the SRAM S60/80, closely followed by the Bullet 50. Are you looking new? If so, would you be open to used? I bet you could find a pair of HED Jet 6/9 and a Zipp 606... those would be my choice for a lighter rider... Edited by audiojan 2012-12-24 7:49 AM
