<£600 a pair - is there such a thing?

You should be able to land some 2nd cosmics for that. Mine are great
Anyone got any experience of these [url= http://www.zuus.co.uk/ ]Zuus[/url] things.
OP - they fit your bill if they're any good, can't see why they wouldn't be.
Or even new ! Not sure if those are the same as my sls though
Wiggle cosine
FarSports. Very impressed with my 38mm ones. They do 50 and 60mm in various widths too.
he said deep.

Wiggle Cosine carbon 55mm?
Or, I almost forgot, shameless plug for a pair of Syncros RR1.5 46mm deep that I'm selling..... a lot less than £600 too... 😉
Those cosine ones look good. Gigantex rims. Don't know much about the hubs though.
That or check the classifieds.
FarSports do do rims too, bought mine via AliExpress and built them myself. Reckon 88s would be a ball ache for every day. I'd stay at or below 60 personally.
Those Zuus look interesting, esp the sale priced 400 quid sets. Spec looks very much like a far East catalogue wheel - Novatec hub, Pillar spokes etc - but you couldn't get a set of equivalent LBs or Farsports for that money, and you've got a UK based warranty rather than rolling the dice with generic Ali express stuff. Basalt braking surface and even have removable logos.
I already have 2 sets of carbon road wheels so not really in the market!
Agreed. Presume they're buying en masse from the Far East, but nowt wrong with that, they're not adding a 200% "European mark up".
Fancy trying some TT'ing this year, what do you think those wiggle (just cos I trust them) 50mm rims would give me on 10 mile?
Presently 27/28 minutes on a standard road bike.
A bit. Maybe a big bit.
Impossible to say much more to any degree of accuracy.
Get a pointy helmet and some tri bars, make sure you're position is sorted, then wheels
Rough guesstimate based on some internet data.... and assuming reference is some box section wheels... about 20 to 30 seconds.
Ta..wheels also look good though 🙂
This is useful on bang for buck with TT equipment:

As cheers_drive says, tri bars and a helmet are a better investment than wheels.

Less than a skinsuit and used TT helmet!
In order of effect:
bars > clothing > helmet > wheels > frame > ... > razor 😉
And lots of people have tried to commercialize chinese carbon rims. Wiggle's look as good as any to be honest.
I'd look for some used FFWD's on the [url= http://www.timetriallingforum.co.uk/?showforum=115 ]TT forum[/url]. Always plenty of shiny for sale there, and let's face it, TT kit is hardly living a tough life, is it?
