The enve wheel, though sexy as hell and nothing short of amazing will not be an option anymore either. Done ALOT of thinking about it and I have come to the conclusion (thanks to many of you and some friends who talked me back to what is best for my situation) that they just are not a smart choice for me, for many reasons. I will be talking with jude tomorrow about making my order of the c2.
My understanding of the Supers is that they are meant only for lightweight builds. They are very flexy and require higher tension. Sapim even recommends buying them shorter as they stretch more than others. I think they are also very expensive too. I would stick with CX Ray or even laser.

Good choice of not getting the Enves. You will be wanting a set of the Enve SMART 3.4 or 6.7 shortly after getting the older 45s. It will never end.
