Plus by that time I'll have a better idea of what frame dimensions/geometry suits me more.

Although..the Alex AT400 rims are only 400g according to the website, around the same or lighter as more expensive rims. Most of the negative reviews on the AT400's suggest spoke breakage or going out of true, but none of those occur to me after I trued them once. Otherwise I was eyeing the Easton EA90 http://www.performancebike.com/bikes...0_20000_400222
Still freaky how they're almost the cost of my bike!
Maybe 400g for just the rim without spokes and the hub.
