One thing I have quickly learnt is that wheels are probably the best, bang for the buck, upgrade you can make to your bike...

AEO, couldn't have said it better...
^ Sarcasm? Because if it is - that's a shame. Fulcrum 7's/Aksiums/Ult+OP are great wheels for $300 bucks. Don't underestimate the engineering in "cheapo" wheels. I hate Mavic for getting rid of the Cosmos - solid as wheelsets come by.

You have Fulcrum 5's - they are nice, light, and durable - what's the problem?

Any wheelset that's going to be nicer than those are going to cost at least $800 bucks.
F1's, Ksy SL's, RR1450's, Zipp CSC, Campy Neutrons... all around or above this price point...

Go to LaBicicletta - ask for Lorne.
