Go and read some reviews on wheels at different sites, like roadbike review, I have some Ea 50's and they have been great "BUT" I also had some EA 90's that broke 4 spokes in two rides! Guess what eastons main issue is these days......wheels that break spokes.....good hunting on the wheels. IMHO, you may be setting your sights a little low in the price range to see a big difference.
