wheelset for under 300
I don't really care about the weight of the wheels...I weigh around 210 lbs. I do race and obviously i'm no mountain goat hahah. I currently have shimano r500 wheels. give me some suggestions on a wheelset under 300 dollars

Are you patient? If yes, monitor CL in the Pittsburgh area for some nice used wheels. No joke, I found a set of used Ksyrium Elites for $310 that way, two months later, my freind found a newer set for $325, and a third showed up for around $325. I've seen other, used better wheelsets on CL for about half list price.
