Mike:
 
I would agree that lightness isn't much of an issue for me.

However, for me the rolling resistance (which I think was bearing quality) was night and day; it was a tangible difference from one day to the next.  Less effort to pedal and and greater speed.  I was, quite honestly, amazed that there could be that mucn difference when replacing a set of Shimano wheels that were OEM'd on a bike with a $3300 list price.
