|  Does Campagnolo make good entry level wheels? | RadicalRonPruitt Dec 29, 2003 3:55 PM | | Like the Proton, Sciroco, or Zonda? |
|  Sure, but are they worth the money? | Kerry Irons Dec 29, 2003 4:29 PM | | Given that you can buy a Velocity Aerohead/Ultegra pre-built wheel for $210, or a Open Pro/Chorus for $290, it's hard to justify the price for any factory built wheel set. |
|  That May Be True, but... | Indurain 03 Dec 29, 2003 11:18 PM | | There are numerous websites where factory wheelsets can be purchased at even lower prices than custom wheelsets.
Taking this into account, I would say the price difference is a non-issue. To answer the original question; yes, entry level Campagnolo wheelsets are very good. I ride the Sciroccos and am very pleased with them. Fairly light weight (1830 g) and 30mm deep rims. A very nice all-around wheelset. |
|  Protons use Chorus hubs and cost $300. | dzrider Dec 31, 2003 5:47 AM | | The Protons accelerate better and require no more maintenance. I think the looks alone are worth $10.00. The only reason I'd prefer Open Pros is for the fun of building them. |
