any experience with Campagnolo Zonda C17 Road Clincher

Echoing sentiment. Zondas are fantastic, a great wheel at a steal of a price.

Slight drift, but since others have mentioned Shamals, you might be price shopping the Zondas against higher zoot Campy options. I got an email yesterday from Texas Cyclesport advertising Shamal Ultras for $699. However, when I follow the link today they say $759.99: https://www.texascyclesport.com/camp...t-special-buy/

I have an earlier set of these (not C17) that I bought used and am very happy with them.

I have the generation right before the c17 and they are phenomenal for the price. Way better than decent. Do the wider ones ride differently?

I'll echo the other's Zonda's are great. I have around 25 or so bikes and one "upgrade" I usually do to all of them are lighter wheels. The Zonda's or their sister wheels, Fulcrum Racing 3's are my go to wheels. I have no preference between the two, just see which version I can get for the cheapest at that time. If you don't know, Campagnolo makes the Fulcrum wheels.

I have a lot of Campagnolo/Fulcrum wheels and find them very durable and trouble free.

I've had 2 or 3 sets of Zonda's over the years. Excellent value wheelset.

Nothing to add except agreement - great bang for the buck.

The Zonda wheels are excellent for the money, weight, serviceability and what they are, a great all around wheelset. You can't go wrong with them.

Where is anyone seeing Zondas for ~$300? I’m having trouble finding online sellers that have them in stock, and haven’t seen them for less than $500 when I do find them.

Campy may be making changes for 2021, so sellers may be waiting for the new model, before buying more.

The equivalent Fulcrum racing 3 always seems to cost more.

Basically same price, but an extra 20 euros shipping
