Just be careful. A lot of companies play games with weights. Even Campy often list the weight of the Campy setup back wheel not the Shimano setup which adds upto a 100 grams.

The freehub on the SLRs is a little soft. I have to give the cassette a few good whacks with the handle of the chainwhip to get it to come free when I remove it, but the freehub is still usable for me. For inexpensive light wheels you have to expect to give something up in durability.

60+ mile ride on the new wheels. Nothing fell apart! Also set 25 PRs on Strava, must be the wheels.

My front SLR broke a second nipple today. I think I corroded them indoor training and leaving puddles on the floor. Mechanic said it was too many watts though.
