The Campagnolo Vento Reaction Wheelset is Campy’s answer to wheels like the Mavic Ksyrium Equipe. While the Vento Reaction may be a bit heavier, it’s got a few nice perks that the other wheels in its price range lack.
First, the Campagnolo Vento Reaction Wheelset uses conventional J-bend, butted stainless steel spokes - a spoke you can easily get at pretty much every bike shop in the world.
Second, the Campagnolo Vento Reaction Wheelset uses Campagnolo’s super smooth, crazy durable hubs.
Finally, the Vento Reaction is STIFF thanks to Campagnolo’s G3 rear spoke lacing, which uses two drive side spokes for every one non-drive side spoke.
This makes the wheel accelerate, sprint, and corner like wheels costing twice as much. In the case of the Campagnolo Vento Reaction Wheelset, it’s not a case of how much it weighs, but how well it uses its weight to its advantage.

From Campagnolo, Fulcrum and Mavic, we've got an array of wheelsets that are bound to take you from 0 to 10 in the time it takes to fit them on your bike.
Mavic is back and is hitting it hard with their Ksyrium, R-SYS and Elite models and we've got the skinny on everything you're going to need to know.
What are the functions of a bicycle wheel? Besides the obvious function of supporting a rider and providing a place to put a tire and gear cluster, a bicycle wheel needs to excel at some specific characteristics. These characteristics often seem to be working against each other.
Mavic has made a powerhouse in their Ksyrium Elite and we're about to prove it to you.
From its rims and spokes, handling and flawless position, Mavic's Cosmic Carbone was designed to become the new standard and it's pretty much out of this world.
