i'm thinking about upgrading my wheelset to something a little lighter/stiffer/more sexier. my questions are these:
1. couple brands to look at? i'm assuming mavic and a quick google would supply other top names but i'm looking for real personal experiences.
2. is it even worth doing this? i figure for even a 1/2 way decent set of wheels i'm going to be in the $600-$800 range. now, don't get me wrong, i like my allez a lot and don't see any need to upgrade the bike...but should i? if i sell the allez and go even money on the wheels i could damn close on an upgrade to a tarmac or similarly priced bike.
what are your thoughts with this? i'm really just looking for guidance here since i'm fairly new to the road world. if my allez was a full 105 i may have a different thought process...but it's not. TIA.
