Power meter or trainer? What if both! I got the PES P505 and ThinkRider A1. Its fairly expensive, got both for 10k each but SO SO much worth it for training.

[@carlovillarica]

HEy if you can go for both, do it! haha

Just so you know my boss a few weeks ago hit a pothole and demolised his brand new Hunt carbon wheel it was about $1k
So careful what you wish for
His 10k bike was written off too
Best part no warranty unless you pay extra and he hadn't
A pothole did more damage than a car did to me at 70kmh
Also other videos of carbon wheels breaking on roads like Shane Millers a year or so ago

[@carlovillarica]

Ya I'll have to take the good with the bad. But i think it's pretty clear now that carbon wheels are very durable.

@@carlovillarica I was talking to a very knowledgeable mechanic who said if you spend 3k yes then there's a gain on aluminium however what I class as expensive my zipp303s are no different from my DT Swiss stock
I fully concur with that theres no gains for me
In fact the only gain is I am 1k lighter in the pocket
