I need some help choosing between two wheelsets:
1) Spinergy Xaero-X wheelset for $399.00 or
2) An Excel Sports built set with Chris King hubs, Mavic CXP-33 rims, and DT bladed spokes, all for around $500.00.
Since I'm on a budget (who isn't?) I'll need to use the wheels for both training and racing, so I'll need them to be able to stand up to a lot of punishment. Currently I train and race on a Felt S32 with the stock wheelset. I weigh just under 175 lbs (off season) and average around 19 mph on rolling courses. Any advice or recomended alternatives would be much appreciated.
PS are Chris King Hubs really all they're touted to be?
