Wheel upgrade
I'm looking for 2 different bikes;
- one comes with Fulcrum racing 7 and
- the other with Mavic Aksium (Mavic QR).
My LBS offer me to upgrate these wheel with Mavic Kysrium Elite for 400$ CAN.
Is it a good deal? Does it worth the upgrate? It there a better upgrade I could do?
Thanks

Look for a deal on the Fulcrum 5 Evolutions. Not sure what the current US to CAN conversion is, but I picked up a pair of 5 Evo's for $255 US delivered. Love the wheels.

343 bucks American to "upgrade" to kysrium If I really wanted to upgrade, I would by the Kysrium here-

and keep either the aksiums or fulcrums. It would cost you about the same in the end, but you would have a second wheel set for racing/training, or when you do not feel like fixing a flat.
