Kelly: late to the table, but the SON should not make any material
difference in your paceline. I *think* I can tell the difference
between the Shimano DH D72 on the Fargo when it is "on" and when it is
"off", at least when I am grunting along on dirt with the very heavy
Big Apple wheelset and am feeling tired ('cause I didn't warm up
properly), but I suspect that this difference exists in my mind rather
than in my legs.Compared to the DH D72 wheel, the SON 20 wheel (ie, with the earlier Deluxe made for small wheels) spins even longer, even with (1) small-radius, (2) very light rim+tire wheel compared to the 700CX60+ of the Fargo. So, per me, the short answer is "no". I fully admit that my purchase of the SON wheel (for '03 Curt) was a vanity purchase, but I don't have regrets. Those hubs are jewelry. (If you get a SON, you can't do otherwise than buy an expensive Edeluxe lamp.)
