How much do your Aero and Non-Aero wheels weigh?
Just curious what your wheels weigh. What type they are and if they are Aero or not?
My wheels are Enve 6.7 Tubular wheels with Chris King hubs. Aero wheels. Weigh 1495 grams.
How about yours. I am wondering what a good set of non Aero wheels weight.
Thanks

my Stan's wheels weigh about 1275g, and are durable enough for everyday use. The tires don't cost an insane amount, and a puncture is cheap to fix.

My Vuelta Corsa Pros weigh 2KG give or take, without the tubes and tires. My other set is about a pound more.
added: Oh, Those are non-aero.

I have a pair of non-Aero Dura Ace C24 clinchers that weigh 1380g. Pretty dang light.

An aero wheelset is approximately 100-200g heavier than a non-aero wheelset. That's the total difference. Both wheelset can run the same hubs, tires/tubes and spokes, so the only difference is the rim weight.
If the difference is larger than that its because you're comparing apples and oranges.

I thought that weight was a mistake and looked it up. Interesting Enve tubulars only weight 100g or so less than clinchers. So there's probably not much difference at all with tires.

Cost only matters if you can't afford them. That is not my concern.
