Average Biking Pace
Zipp 303 wheels? How do they feel?
I just got a Trek Madone 5.2 and this bike is absolutely fantastic. It feels like a dream while I am moving along at 20mph. And when I sprint the bike just reacts like a rocket. The only upgrade I am considering are the Zipp 303 wheels.
However let me tell you something about myself. I am not a competitive cyclist. I ride mostly fun rides or ride by myself. I average 16mph to 18mph with minor stops and slow downs due to traffic or pedestrians. I can easily maintain a pace of 20mph + for about an hour as long as there are no headwinds and the road is completely flat.
I love riding. But am I starting to spend too much money on my bike if I am not a competitive cyclist? I am just really curious about the feel of certain wheels. This bike already feels phenomenal but I wonder how much better it would be when I have world class wheels?
Anyone with experience with Zipp 303s please give me your opinions. Am I better off with lesser wheels such as the Mavic R-sys?
yes, for that price level i would rather get topolinos. they are much lighter, the cx2.0 are at 1340 grams!
