I bought a cheap set of wheels to start off, and granted I'm still a beginner, but I know that so far I've been putting in 20 miles a day several days a week and I can feel that the wheels aren't so cool with that....I don't know if that's a lot of miles, but I like to ride pretty hard and I'm definitely gonna be upgrading as my next step. I'm thinking Kogswell flip flop laced to Velocity aerohead for the rear...not sure about the front, maybe match it with the same rim and a different hub.

Anyway, had I known what I was getting myself into, I would have done way more research and would have definitely spent considerably more on my wheels. Not something you want to do on the cheap, but I guess it's ok to get you into the whole thing.
