Subject: recommendation needed for wheel for PowerTap
I am wanting to get a PowerTap for next season, but I have no idea which wheel to put it onto. I want to put it onto a wheel that is halfway between a training wheel and a race wheel, if such a thing exists, and it needs to be compatible with a PowerTap.

Any ideas?

I have mine is a DT Swiss RR 1.2 that is used for training and then a second PT being built into an 808. Originally was going to go into a 1080 but found out it is not recommended.

 

Also, you can go out to wheel builder and get an idea of what rims you can use.

Answered in other thread, but a training wheel with a disc cover.  If $ is no obstacle, then get a Zipp 808 with a disc cover.
