I took off BST wheels and replaced them with the new OZ GASS wheels on my 1199S:




I only went on one ride with them, but I can't tell the difference between the BST and the GASS wheels - especially with new tires. The turn in is about the same.
The GASS wheels are very light for forged aluminum wheels and about $1000 difference in price...:)

You went for a ride on the road and can't feel the difference between the new wheels . I actually don't find that surprising .

Feel is a funny thing though, some people are more sensitive to feel than others....and I'm not talking about placebo or wanting to feel something to justify a change.
 
What are you going to do with the BST??

I am looking at wheels, I am to interested in the weight of the GASS as on all the sites its not clear or I don't believe them!

Choice for me is
OZ Peiga in black or S/R wheels, don't want to pay for Mags, don't like the styles of the Carbons except 7k priced ones.
Interested in all opinions and pictures to ease my pain!

Forgot to do that.
I sold the BST wheels already but we might have some OZ GASS wheels in stock that we can weigh.

Of the wheels that we have weighed, the GASS are about a pound lighter per wheel than the Piega.
But more importantly, I was told the outer rim of the GASS wheels are thinner and lighter because of the extra support provided by additional spoke.

Make sure you keep an eye on your carbon wheels - my rear Rotobox Boost is cracked on four of the five spokes
