I have a 2012 S-Works Venge with FLO 30 wheels that I use for crit racing. The wheels are well worn and need replacement, so I'm weighing my options. I assumed I could spend $500 on new FLO30's but I don't see them on their website. I always felt like FLO30's were the sweet spot for 'cheap' wheels. Still reasonably aero, not crazy heavy, wide internal width so I can put a 25mm tire without bulging, etc.
The current wheels are worn all around, but the bearings are what is making me go for a full replacement.
What are my other options? Ideally I'd like to keep the price $1000 or less.
My only requirements are:
Price: $1000 or less
Braking surface: Aluminum, rim brakes (no carbon braking surface)
If it matters, I live in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Edit to add: Worth mentioning, I have access to a good job who can build wheels (free labor for me) so that's an option. I wouldn't even know what items to buy though.
