Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I love them, reynolds makes a great wheel.

That said, I have some Real Design carbon clinchers on my cannondale that I got for nearly half the price of the reynolds and I like those a lot too.

My 2.0 came with the Oval 330's too, I think they weigh close to 2000 grams...upgrading the wheels is a great place to drop some money and just about anything will lighten the bike by a couple pounds.

A particular bang/buck wheelset you recommend?

I haven't seen those before, but they're definitely on the lighter side, not bad at all for the price and 1400+ grams.

There's so many different options for wheels. I'm still a bit of a noob myself. Personally, I'd suggest just starting a thread and asking for recommendations or searching for recommendations, there's a ton of them out there.

When I bought my reynolds, they were used and the price fit my budget...same for my real design wheels. My criteria was pretty much...carbon clinchers under 1500 grams and good reviews.
