Recommend me a good *LIGHT* wheelset
So I'm over the whole riding-brakeless-with-hella-deep-rims thing. I don't do triathlons nor do I ride competitively; deep rims are useless. They're expensive and heavy.
I currently have two wheelsets, which I'm considering selling off to fund a well-built, logical wheelset. I have:
1. Front Weinmann LP18 on generic hub (stock with a KHS Flite), Rear B43 on a Phil Wood hub (I might steal the Phil wood cog and lockring off this one)
2. Miche Pistard set, spokes need tensioning and I can't be bothered
I can get a set of Alexrims DA22s on Formula hubs built at my LBS for about $300 CAD + tax. I find that a bit steep, but I imagine it would be worth it for the high quality. I don't know much about these rims; but they felt light.
Alternatively, I can order from an American site like Velomine or BikeWheelWarehouse. I find Velomine to be easier on shipping (Ben is a great guy) and cheaper overall, but they carry mostly deep rims.
Anyone have any links/suggestions? These wheels need to be light but decently strong, and well-built. I want to keep the truing/tensioning to a minimum when its in my hand.
Oh yeah: prefer black w/ black spokes, though silver spokes are find, nipples I don't care, and front should be machined; rear I'd prefer NMSW.
Cheers!
