    Simple question to see what people think...

    Is it worth getting a 50mm or even an 80mm carbon clincher wheelset for road racing in Ireland (A3) where we have lots hard acceloration out of corners etc? Or is it better to go with ligtweight allu clincher wheels such as Fulcrum racing Zero's???

    Can't make up my mind.

    Regards.

    80mm is a bit OTT. I have 50mm and they look cool! (They wont make you go any faster though)

    That's quitter talk. If I could affford decent 80mm wheels I'd own them, I have 50mm cosmics right now.
