I have Cosmic SL on my bike at the moment. The Exalith on the brake track has worn off. I’ve seen a pair of Cosmic SLE come up for sale which look in very good condition(stated as 3 yr old) Advertised price is £525 so maybe a bit pricey. I thought of buying them and moving on my SL’s.

As far as I can see the main difference is really just in the hubs which are supposedly better on the SLE than the SL.

Am I really wasting my time and would I be better either keeping what I’ve got or looking at something else. I must say I put some standard profile Hunt tubeless on my winter bike and I’ve been tempted by their aero 50s for the Canyon Aeroad

Any comments appreciated

See the other thread about tubeless and performance of Hunt 50s, suggestion is getting prime 50s.

I personally would speak to Malcolm at thecycleclinic about his Borg50s or spokesman wheels (Mark), about his version. Hand built to your own spec and can be repaired/rims replaced as and when needed.
