Yea but you live on the Isle of Wight where everything weighs less because the atmosphere is not as dense. True facts.

nice i have the second heaviest wheel set, and they're not even the second best looking 
in reality though would the 24~kg difference between lasers and c5 steelloys even be noticeable

Plus unsprung weight makes much more difference than sprung weight to handling

Unsprung AND rotational. Yes it would definitely make a difference. 24kg is a lot!

without wanting to sound too much like tom... but the rotational mass drop of 24kgs would more than likely have a noticable effect on urban mpgs....
