I don't even know if one of those wheelsets is any better than the other.

I thought you post here to get opinions. If you are aware of things, then, I am sure you know the way to be aware of other issues too without wasting people’s precious time. They are both generic bikes with different decals. What difference does it make? Just get the one with flashier decals.
