What do they weigh? have tried searching and it brings up absolutely nothing, its around 7.5kg i think but just interested to know the real weight.

Yep 8kg is what I put each for a set I had courier'd a few weeks back and had no problems.

I read somewhere ph1 and ph2 wheels are not the same, ph2 ones are lighter but weaker. I cannot confirm this. I have a spare wheelset in the garage (ph2 - these ones were weighed years ago) will re-weigh them tomorrow.

Cool im happy, saving 0.5kg per wheel in unsprung weight and an extra half inch in width over the Turinis. Every little helps :)
