Zipp 808 wheels are an amazing combination of research, technology and racing experience. Zipp redesigned the 808 in 2009 to an 81mm depth. A new 88/188 hub is stiffer, more reliable and faster to engage than the old design. Tire-to-rim interface and lateral stiffness has also been improved. The slightly heavier hubs improve the stiffness of the hub and rim while the decreased spoke count of 6 spokes compensate for the heavier hub. Zipp claims the 808 is nine seconds faster over 40k than the previous 808.
The 808 can help them conserve energy while sitting in the field and achieve a greater top speed at the end of the race. These benefits can be had with the Zipp 808 without the loss of rapid acceleration and precise handling. Roues Artisinales tested a multitude of racing wheels and learned that the 808's absorb 16.7 watts of energy at 50kph. By comparison, the Mavic Ksyrium Equipe from 2007 absorbs 30w. That's 44% less energy! I wonder what speed would have been achieved if you put the 30 watts into the 808's?
Matt Phillips of Bicycling Magazine wrote: "The 808 needs no introduction to tri and TT riders, but it's also gaining acceptance among roadies. The weight-conscious might scoff at the 808's 1,455-gram weight; although that's still light, the 808s don't have the snap of a 1,000-gram wheel set. But the 808s accelerate quickly with a light, crisp feel. Stiffness is excellent, and the 808s have that magical deep-wheel drive, making an extra few mph at lactate threshold possible". -Matt Phillips

I tried them out at the 2010 Ironman St. George, Utah. I estimate the 808's lowered my time in the bike segment by 39 minutes and increased my average speed by 1.8 MPH over the stock Shimano Ultegra wheel set that came on my bike. This increase made up almost all the time I lost in the swim. I am a slow swimmer. The other thing I love about the 808's is the WOW factor. The sound the wheels make when coming up behind a slower rider almost always got a look see from the rider being passed. I also got several comments from those riders on the wheels and the sound.
The Zipp 808 wheel set has an MSRP of $2,485.00, the best price I found was $2,237.00 at TriathlonMart.
Dawes Bikes - All About This British Bicycle Maker
Dawes bikes have been in the cycle manufacturing business for over a 100 years now. They offer a decent collection of road cycles. The Dawes Bicycle company was founded in the year 1906 in Birmingham, UK when Charles Dawes merged business with a cycle company that was originally called Humphries & Dawes. The Humphries were in the business of manufacturing motorcycles, which they continued doing while Dawes concentrated on Road Bicycles for the Racing Cycle market. By 1926 Dawes Cycles was fully established and it focused on the production of cycles. Dawes Cycles are famous for their quality as they are hand built by an extremely skilled and experienced workforce. One of the best selling Dawes Cycles in the cycle market was the Dawes Galaxy a Road Bike which was especially built for Touring, and that is still being made today and also the Dawes Super Galaxy. The new range of Dawes Road Cycles includes the Dawes Giro range with the Giro 200, Giro 300, Giro 400 and Giro 500 and all of them differ slightly to cater to a wide range of consumers and wallets. The current best selling road cycle is the Giro 500 the frame is built from double butted alloy 6061 with carbon stays and an Alloy Steerer with carbon blades. The finishing kit of the Giro models, are all of the best quality. The Sportif Ultra Ti comes form the Dawes Sportif range, the price of the Sportif Ultra ti is similar to that of the Giro 500. The Sportif Ti is made from hi tech Titanium and built for comfort with a low weight and Sportif/Audax geometry the ride characteristics of the Sportif 3AI/2.5V are superb and give comfort that only titanium frames can give- rigid, and comfortable with carbon forks, Shimano Ultegra compact gear set and WH-RS20 wheels. So, if one is looking for high quality hand made cycles with a long tradition of comfort and service, then Dawes Road cycles are the answer which would help you in the sport of road cycling.

How much would this bike be worth new?
Thanks for the great feedback on my previous question... Can anyone give me their best guess what this bike would be worth if it was new (instead of from 2001)?

Around £1000 for all the current equipment, but like you say, it's old, so everything on it will be old, thus worth much much less than that.
