I've been kinda sorta kicking around the idea of a slight wheel upgrade. My wheels (front wheel is a stock axis sport wheel from my allez, rear is powertap pro with g3 internals with a 32h velocity a23) weigh 6lbs total with tires and such. I usually don't think about wheels much, but when I do group rides/races I start to think they're not up to the task (mostly imagined, but I'm sure no one is opposed for changing up gear for fun). Anyhow, not trying to go nuts with the "upgrade" but I found some options under $300 that seem marginally better than what I have, either weight-wise or aeroness. Given that I can't even ride outside on this long weekend and mostly ride indoors, it's kind of silly to be considering wheels, but I have nothing better to do! Here's what I have at the moment on my list of consideration

vision team 35 - $240

pro-lite bracciano a27w - $220

pro-lite bortola a21w - $302

campagnolo scirocco c17 - $238

and of course some rando carbon wheels on amazon prime for $299 lol
