I just cant love the Alleggeritas as much as the Ultraleggara. Im a function over form type of person most of the time so OZ all the way but this wheels looks extra basic. I like the Ultras because the Form was as good as the function.

Im not a fan of heavy wheels no matter what they look like. Wheels weight makes an amazing difference with the S..... Ask airgate. He went from a 24-26 pound wheel to a 14-15 pound wheel.

^I think I have ruled out the Allegeritas since your wheels are for sale at such a better price than what I can buy those for. Nathan, if your wheels are still for sale, I will be looking at them if the Works fall through. I am still waiting on the specs on the wheels. If they weigh in the mid 20s like my Rotas do, I doubt I will spend the money for them. Thanks for everyones input!!

For me it's a tossup between the Works and the MRR's . I think the Works look different in a good way. I don't really think you would be making a bad choice with any of these wheels though.

I actually called about these wheels and they said that the wheels weigh in the low 20's in weight. He said 22-23 lbs a peice. The stock 16s are much lighter. Oh well.

Honestly. I like your D2s the best. Not to mention 5 spoke wheels are so much easier to clean.

But if I had to choose from the above list then it would have to be the OZs.

Good luck. As long as you like them, that's all that matters.
