hi scrod...a few days ago there was an intense discussion in this thread re decent, moderate price pre-built wheelsets

what an amazing coincidence...i was shopping for wheels over the past week & the very sets that i narrowed my final choice down to were both mentioned

hate to admit it, but on the final decision i have caught paralysis by analysis & need help choosing

they are meant for a steamroller so i had in mind to use big tires...

1st choice is a very reasonably priced set of all silver sun cr18s with formula hubs, 36 spoke, should be pretty strong. i will likely throw cx tires on this bike occasionally to take it off-road, so these are appealing but they are heavy, i mean really heavy.

the other option is a wabi wheelset, which of course is about as light as you can get for moderately priced, pre-built wheels. they are black & i don't think they can be nearly as sturdy as the suns, but they are about a pound lighter.

scrod...which of these 2 would you choose?

btw, i would love to hear opinions from other bfssfg posters, if you don't mind them answering in your thread

and please don't suggest custom-built, i am not up to making all the decisions involved in that...
