Just wanted some opinions as to whether or not the Bontrager Paradigm elite road wheel set is a worth while upgrade to the stock wheels on a new Trek Emanda ALR5. It's basially a $1000 wheel set vs the $500 set that comes stock on the bike. I'm not racing or anything and bought the bike for fitness and I just am not sure if that is money well spent. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

If I don't go with a wheel set I'm debating picking up a hybrid that is easier to tool around with when my 5 year old son wants to ride his new bike
