| Are they illegal for road races? I know Spinergys are, but they have flat spokes with very sharp edges. The Xentis spokes look to be rounded off. I hope they're ok for the road and for Gran Fondos 'cos I wouldn't mind a pair to replace my aging Spinergy Rev X's. |

Yes they are illegal for RR's as they have less than 12 spokes, however, Gran Fondos aren't road races are they!

Have you ridden one? The one I rode in June seemed like a road race to me!   Seriously, Italians will ask if you are riding the "race" and you do need a BC or other UCI racing licence. I don't think I'll take the chance; I wouldn't want to travel all the way to Italy and be denied a start
Shame though, Kysriums just aren't eye-catching enough and i can't afford Lightweights. |
