Second wheel set for road
 
Looking for a second wheel set for road only tires to put on a cyclocross bike (caadx). Nothing fancy or expensive. Don't know anything about wheels spokes or hubs. What would be my best options for a budget of about $3-400 including a 10 speed cassette?

Mavic ksyrium elites have been on sale. Look for a set on ebay.

Hard to beat Neuvations if you're under 190-200 lbs. As 16/20 spoke wheels, if you weigh more than that you'll probably run into durability issues.

Thanks for the suggestions. Maybe ill have st spend a bit more to get new. Where are these sales on? All I found on eBay in my price range were used.

You can also go to ProWheelBuilder and get a set of H+Sons Archetype/ 105 hubs/ DTSwiss 14/15/14 for $399.88. Thirty-two spoke, three-cross. Not sexy in the slightest, but you get the new-style 23mm rims if you prefer those, and the durability of a hammer for pounding out endless miles without drama. Oh, and off-the-shelf replacements if anything does manage to get broken.
