Hello,

Sorry it's not a MTB query this time!

I've a trip abroad coming up and a bonus has afforded me the chance for a few shiny upgrades.
My bike is a Cube Agree Pro (alu not carbon) http://www.tweekscycles.com/bikes/road-bikes/cube-agree-pro-road-bike-2012

I'm keen on saving a little weight off this as i'd like it to be under 8kg. From my limited experience of other road bikes the wheels feel to me like the week point, does anyone have any good suggestions for a reasonable upgrade to Easton EA50's?

Thanks

Ed

Your Eastons come in at about 1700g IIRC, so not very light, but not ridiculously heavy. You'd have to spend a big chunk to get anything noticeably lighter, £650 for a set of Dura Ace C24s at around 1350g for example, or a bit less if you went somewhere like Wheelsmith.

To be honest, 8kg isn't bad for an alu roadbike.
