For well over a year now I've been talking about getting a carbon wheelset.  For longer than that, I've wanted a set of Enve's S.E.S. 3.4s with King R45 hubs because the 35mm deep, 26mm wide front and 45mm deep, 24mm wide rear wheels are aerodynamically on par with a V shaped rim at 50mm deep and 22mm or less wide.  And I love me some King hubs.  Well, here's where I am on that...
