I was going for set of Mavic's and LBS showed me the HED Jet 60 (front)/90's (Rear) and mentioned to consider as well. I liked the wheels and for $1,200 vs $1,500 for the Mavic Cosmic Carbone SL, did not see differences at face value in $300 difference.

However, does anyone ride these wheels, comments?

Thanks...

I rode this combo for training and racing for the last year. No problems to date.

I just picked up a set of Jet60 C2's and so far I have to say that I love them.

These would not be the C2's, but there seems to be about $200+ difference for them. Did you see big difference in comparing the two?

Thanks everyone else for comments as well...

I decided if I was going to spend the money I was going to go for the one that was the most recent design.  The C2 is a wider rim.  It's pretty wide.  I had to readjust my brakes after swapping them on because if I didn't the brakes were clamped down on the braking surface.  The 23mm wide Prorace 3's I put on don't go outside of the braking surface at all.

I got the 60/90 C2 set up this summer (I have the 650s).  I've used them for two races thus far, and I really like them.  I didn't have to adjust my brakes for the C2s.  I never thought that race wheels would make such a difference in feel---I was just expecting some more speed...but let me tell you how much easier it is to take some of the road bumps on these wheels vs. my stock training wheels.
