Comments about Easton EA50 Aero Road Wheel - Rear:

These wheels came true out of the box. They're not the lightest wheels, but they're about a pound lighter than my stock Alex R500/Felt hub wheelset. It will be hard to find a better wheelset under $399.

The only drawback is that tires are hard to mount (like the previous ea50 wheels). Best thing to do is to buy a bead jack lever and turn that 30 minute mounting job into a 30 second one. Your thumbs will be happy!

Also, don't know why REI sells the front and rear separately when everyone else sells them as a wheelset.
