I'd love to try those Corimas but going by the rest of your build, definitely Boras.

Know 2 people running the MCC's.
1 has gone through countless spokes, the other has had no problems whatsoever.

Go with the Boras...

I have the Corima's on a F8. Zero problems but on a build like you have I would choose the Campags also.

I tried both and bought Bora's. Just felt better (same tires, same bike).

I have the Corima MCC S+ 2016 model, and a mate of mine has the Boras.

I like the Corimas and they are very stiff, but in my testing, not so aero, because of the thick round spokes, but this is only really an issue above 45km/h or so.

Given that the price of the Corimas is very close to Lightweights, that is what I would choose (and it's what I prefer to ride 75% of the time too).

You really need people who have run both to comment but all I can say (having not run the Corimas) is that after owning the Bora50C for 18 months I am still completely happy with them which is very usual for me! Well priced in the UK and look great in my opinion.

I am writing a bora35 to the c60.
It is a good combination and I recommend.

I have a pair of the 47mm S+ wheels on my Look. Rode them all summer on my C59. Really like these wheels. They are not the super sexy MCC's, but my tubular S+'s come in at about 1225g, which is quite light. I have a pair of Bora Ultra 2's (not the new wider rim), they are great wheels and roll phenomenally smoothly. Depending on your source for the wheels there is likely going to be a difference in price. The cheapest I have seen the MCC tubulars is about $2400, you can get the Bora Ultra 50's (again tubulars) for around $1900. If you do a search there was a very comprehensive comparison and review (youtube) of the MCC's done by weight-weenie user 'cyclespeed' the threads went on from late summer i believe into October.

Prices at Starbike are lower than that, at least to the U.S.
