    Roadbike – so look away if easily offended 😉

    currently have some Campag Khamsin. Ok like, but thinking of getting something different ( lighter too )

    I’ve been told that getting a really good hub, and perhaps getting the wheels build around that, rather than just forking out on a new set of complete wheels would be a better option.

    I ride about 3-4 times a week ( in this weather mind )

    Just wondering whats going to be the best value for money, and where I’m going to benefit the most… any ideas ? Thinking £500 – £600 budget.

    Off the Shelf? The Fulcrum Racing Zero’s seem unanimously adored. Probably a little too spendy though, good news is the Racing 1’s are very nearly as good and in your price range.

    Custom build? Should be able to score some DT240S hubs on something like Velocity A23’s, Stans Alpha’s or Pacenti SL23’s, with Sapim CX Ray spokes for your budget if you shop around.

    Or of course you can go for the far eastern Carbon Clincher options too, if that takes your fancy…
