I know it's Superstar, but I've been very happy with my Pacenti CL25 on Tesla wheels. (I paid £199 on offer - normally £269)
There's 30% off custom wheel builds today-only, so it might work out similar price.
For example - I just used their generator to specify:
Stans Iron Cross Rim - CX Disc x 2
700C STANS IRON CROSS 32H
Tesla EVO Front Hub x 1
Tesla EVO Front Hub Body x 1
TESLA EVO F BLACK 32H
Tesla Evo Front Adaptor x 1
Tesla EVO Front QR
Tesla EVO Rear Hub x 1
Tesla Evo Rear Adaptor x 1
TESLA EVO REAR QR
Tesla EVO Rear Body x 1
TESLA EVO R BLACK
Tesla Evo Freehub x 1
TESLA EVO ALLOY FREEHUB
Sapim CX-Ray - Bladed Black x 2
SAPIM CX-RAY - Bladed BLACK
Sapim Brass Nipples x 2
BRASS
Came out at £311.49 which sounded cheap to me.
I think DT Swiss 350 hubs were a similar hub price too.
Edit: £328.99 for Stans Iron Cross, CX-rays on DT 350 hubs I thought was a bargain.
Just had a set built up by m pollard at spokesman wheels - novatech hubs sapim Cxray spokes and stans alpha 400 rims just over 1500g for pair. Great set of wheels.
If you want ready built the Planet X carbon 38mm cross wheels are listed at 1440g
Aren't the Planet X ones tubs bigdawg?
yes they are - my bad, but tbh I was going to buy them but couldnt find one review on them
OK I think I have made my decision for my set of wheels for my tcx slr 1 - Pacenti SL 25 rims, cx ray spokes and Hope pro 2 evo hubs. All in black. Unless anyone has any other recommendations . I have estimated the weight of this set but does anyone know what the actual weight will be ?
Have you built those wheels now Steve73? I'm looking at a similar spec for my cross bike. What spoke count did you go for? 28/28?
Be interested to read how you guys get on with the Pacenti SL25's they are currently on my shopping list thinking of what to improve on my Niner RLT, and some of those on red hope hubs is very much on my mind.
+1 for Pacenti SL25 interest. They're wider, deeper, and lighter than Stans Grails somehow?! Seems a no brainer to me
