Subject: Bike wheels -- Upgrade?? Hi Everyone!
I recently purchased a new tri bike (Quintana Roo Kilo ). I'm, of course, very excited about getting on the bike in some training and races this season. I was thinking that I'd like to upgrade the wheelset, but with the cost of the bike and an upcoming trip to Hawaii, cash flow is kinda tight. so, heres the question:
The bike came with Shimano RS010 wheels. I know that those are a common stock wheelset on new bikes.
I have a brand new set of Mavic Aksium 1 wheels in my garage (https://shop.mavic.com/en-be/aksium-rr0700.html )
and...
I came across these Vuelta 37mm wheels on Nashbar http://www.nashbar.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10053_1005...
So, I guess what I'm really asking is, Is the Aksium an upgrade over the stock shimano wheels or are they pretty much even. Would the Vueltas be an upgrade over either??? I really love the looks of the Vuelta wheels and all of the reviews on it are great.
Thanks for any help!
