looking to upgrade wheelset on my spesh s-works enduro(08)currently running standard qr fork and will upgrade next year, but wheels first. need something for everyday trails and can handle 'the peaks' and trail centres.
my shortlist is;
crossmax st(08)
american classics
crossmax sx
stans 355 or flow on hope pro 11
easton havoc am
priorities are ; light;reliable;bling;tubeless; bolt thru option.
any thoughts welcomed

Roval Traversee's (think the 09 top end Enduro's came spec'd with them anyway)

cheers,these were my first thought, seem a bit pricey (£699 rrp now)to a few years ago, seen a few dodgy reviews but i guess all wheels will have a few detractors.

Assuming you don't mind the noise, Stan's Flow on Pro IIs would get my vote.

dt 240 hubs on flows?

Have you considered the Fulcrum red metal zeros or 1's? I am after a pair of zeros when I can afford and when CRC has them on offer again.

flows seem to be the way to go, do i need rim strip to run standard tyres tubeless? what sort of price pair of dt 240/flow?

Arch rims on ZTR hubs (HD version is convertable between all axle combos) would be my vote. Light, strong and great quality.
