ROVAL clx40 vs Campy BORAONE 50 ?

[thedonnydino]

Yes, Roval wheels are known to get blown around in crosswinds due to it's rim profile.

Before I bought my wheels I read a couple of reviews and spoke to a few people and it wasn't noted as a huge issue. Most published reviews didn't note it either. Maybe there have been reviews since noting this as a particular issue? Once again, I haven't had the benefit of riding them back to back with another wheelset.

Otherwise, I just boil it down to it being light wheels with a bit of depth and nothing extraordinary.

Let me ask you this - do you understand rim profile and it's shape? Narrow vs. wide (inner and outer width) "V" shape vs. "U" shape? What does this mean when you consider a wheelset?
Don't rely on reviews, instead educate yourself.

Oh no - I understand the science, but real life application training, racing and riding has demonstrated that the way the wheels react in crosswinds isn't enough to impact my results. I'd imagine that the rim profile and shape wasn't enough to deter the reviewers, the people I spoke to or the results yielded by those in the pro ranks.

Hi there~

Which is good in special roval clx40 vs Campy Boraone 50 ?

Roval heard talking about thermal deformation lot compared to the other wheel.

Thanks.

If you use the clincher clx40. If you are using a tubular bora50!!

I heard that 2015~16 BORA ONE are awesome.

Of course, a ROVAL is a good wheel, too

Compared to the ROVAL, however, the BORA ONE less from both the name value and spec

Therefore, I recommend the BORA ONE

Boraone 50 is better.

Welcome to the forum, hongsj. Thank you for your valuable contribution to this thread. Based on your recommendation, I will get Boraone 50 since it is better.
