Hi all,

As per the subject, what is the difference between these two wheels? The best google gave me was 10 :|

Do people have real world weights?
I write the weightweenies blog, hope you like it :)

Disclosure: I'm sponsored by Velocite, but I do give my honest opinion about them (I'm endorsed to race their bikes, not say nice things about them)

I just bought a set of RS21's and they were 1870grams with rim tape on them.

Weight difference is probably negligible. The only difference is the 21 has an 11 speed hub....

Pretty sure the bladed spokes on RS21 are double butted as opposed to the straight-gauge bladed spokes on the RS11.
