i would have to say the azonic would be a better deal because you can switch back and forth from 9mm qr or you can use the 20mm axle. if you can you could also run the 12mm axle for the rear too. it comes with all the stuff to do this. plus there light i gain only 2 oz over my crapy alxe dm 18 wheelset. good stuff and i only pay 280 for mine after shiping
