Where is the weight saving ? lighter rims and spokes will be quicker to spin up, if the weight savings is in the hub it will lighten your bike (obviously) but you may not notice any difference in getting up to speed.
I believe that the current stock wheels Mavic Aksium One Disc have quite beefy hubs - but cannot be sure where most of the weight is.
I have a set of the Pro-Lite's which have done around 150 miles on the road if you are interested, obviously immaculate. Fitted with 28mm Vittoria Rubino Pro's that have also done the same miles. They certainly felt more sprightly and stiffer than my stock giant wheels which are also over 2kg
I brought them at the same time as I got a CX bike so i could run the original bike wheelset when trying cx, but my knee doesn't like running so I quickly ditched that idea! I will also be selling on the cx bike as it's a bit too aggressive for long road miles so the wheels are surplus.
Let me know if you are interested and I can send you pictures etc, no problem posting them
Thanks for the offer, but I can get the Pro-Lite's new for £150 which is likely to be less than what you want for them?
Why not Ksyrium Disc? Or the disc brake Kinesis set, can't remember model number ( v3?)
As above, the ones I have listed are only around £150 each - the Pro-Lite's being cheaper at £150. So I seen it as a fairly low cost upgrade - if they were in fact to be an upgrade! Furthermore the Pro-Lite's can be run tubeless if I ever wished to go down that route, so are quite versatile.
I just recall changing the stock wheels on my Carerra Vanquish to Falcrum Racing 5's and the difference was considerably notable. A lot more dynamic, no flex, much quicker to accelerate. I just wondered even if I was to get half of that improvement again, then it would be worth buying a new wheelset for my current bike.
