Irritated

Time to rant about wheels. Why is it that there are about 3 factories in Taiwan that manufacture every single wheel on the planet yet I have to pay $1500 bucks for a wheel that the Taiwanese are selling for 200 to the US companies? This is silliness. All of us weekend warrior triathletes, cyclists, runners and swimmers need to wise up. Just because you're smoking down the road with a big sticker on your wheel that rhymes with pipp, doesn't mean that you don't have to still pedal. That friggin wheelset you just paid $2000 bucks for probably won't save you much time. Stop paying $2000 bucks for a sticker dammit, it makes my shopping experience very unenjoyable!!

Off to buy my new wheelset! wish me luck

I wish I could rant about wheels with any finesse.
