Greets...

A friend of mine just did a bike rebuild and gave me his previous set of 'Aero' style wheels... they have Shimano Dura ace hubs, a Shimano block and these fancy looking aero style rims. Very nice I thought as I put them in the car.

At home I attacked them with a bucket of soapy water.... and very pretty they look too. Except as I was cleaning them I though to myself 'blimey these don't feel as light as I expected' Out with the kitchen scales; yes they are exactly 100g HEAVIER than the 'no-brand' STEEL wheels originally fitted to my Peugeot back in the mid '80's. So much for progress!!

So should I use the set of 90's Ambrosio rims on Shimano 105 hubs I had built years ago put on these trick looking but heavy modern things?

Drew,
