>>1560779i saw pic related and started considering dt aero comp
then i saw these comments
>Not stronger, stiffer. Driveside revos/aerolites on a 24h rear get squirmy in hard corners and can rub brake pads in a sprint I'll probably use them on track wheels also. Track wheels cannot be too stiff.>I stopped using CX-Rays on the DS a few years ago since they aren't stiff enough.https://forums.roadbikereview.com/wheels-tires/dt-aero-comp-spokes-269445.htmlso i don't think cx-ray and aerolite would be stiff enough for my liking
aero comp are probably stiff enough but i think 1.8mm diameter round spokes will be more laterally stiff than 1.2mm wide aero spokes and the aero penalty is marginal at best in my circumstances
>Round spokes for sure have some aero penalty associated but it’s not dramatic. Definitely non-zero but also definitely not first order. Other things to consider! You will also notice aero spokes will make cross wind riding considerably more twitchy…AND if you do decide to go with aero spokes make sure the spoke is absolutely parallel with the track of the wheel. It’s easy to get them a little off & then you’ll have an overall aero penalty vs round spokes instead of an advantage. Heaven forbid one of your aero spokes works its way to an orthogonal position.https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/am-i-throwing-away-watts-with-round-spokes/29325/16
