Deep Dish wheel help

joey100

Hello all,

havent really done much cycling before but last few years have been doing a few triathlons and bought a TT bike last year (Felt B16), so this year I a going to spend a few euro trying to upgrade it.

The first thing I hvae been looking at is the wheels but unfortunately this has to be done on a budget (approx. 900).

So far I think I have it narrowed done to the following two choices

or

http://www.evanscycles.com/products/profile/altair-semi-carbon-80mm-section-clincher-wheelset-ec027363?query=profile%20design%20altair

But unfortunately I dont know much about wheels and am finding it hard to find any concrete information on the web, especially for the profile designs.

Does anyone here have any info on these wheels or be able to recommend another wheel that would be suitable for a Triathlon bike? Thanks for taking time to read this, cheers, Joe

both those wheel-sets are pretty heavy. You could also check out these:-

I am happy with mine, been running them for about 8 months and no problems, guy I know also has a pair and doesn't have any problems. A lot lighter than the wheels your looking at, plus they come with ceramic bearings.

Bit of a gamble since they are an unknown brand, but all I can tell you is my wheel-set is perfect, really happy with them and the company itself is very responsive to any questions etc
