Hmmm. That sounds like a strange explanation. Low spoke count means lightweight race wheels to me. But lightweight wheels on a steel Allez is sort of a strange mixture.

Mavic makes very good wheels. I still ride a pair of Heliums that are almost 11 years old. Never had a problem with a Mavic wheel.
