crashed, front wheel is toast
Im keeping this short because I may or may not have fractured my hand/wrist and am typing with one hand. I had a bad wreck today and my front wheel basically taco'd. I was riding a mavic aksium. What do you guys think I should replace the wheel with? Let's say my max budget is $150. Should I just pick up another aksium? Just need it as a training wheel.

For a training wheel you really cannot beat a 32-spoke wheel on something like a DT Swiss RR465 rim with an Ultegra or Shimano 105 hub and 14/15G spokes. The weight will also be similar to the Aksiums.
