The XC 1 come up on special offer quiet often so I'd be reluctant to spend near rrp on them. I got them for £260(ish). They're strong (for xc), light and I've had no problems with them. I've not had to replace bearings or anything yet so dont know about servicing them. Overall I'm a happy customer. You may have seem this review:

Dont know about Americans but they seem to have a good reputation.
couldashouldawoulda - woah......where did you get them for £260??? Cheapest i can find currently is merlin @ £322 in postage. I did see that review, the only thing i was concerned with was spare spokes and gunk in the bearings tbh, how long have you had yours? thanks for the input btw, its appreciated!
I got them 5 months back from CRC for 269 and remember that it was the last set they had (went out of stock after I ordered them) - so they may have been an 08 model.
I've had them through some proper awful conditions with no problems.
They also had replacement bearings at the time. Dont know about spokes.
