Hi All,
Why should I not get a set of Prime Doyenne 50 Carbon Rim Brake Wheels? They come with an option of a Campag freehub (for additional cost, but that is cheaper than a Miche casette).
Is there a better option?
Cheers

I'm considering the same wheelset for summer aero use. Haven't seen anything better for the money yet, nice wide rims and have star ratchet freehub. If you do get them let me know how you find them
Assuming you are buying new they are an okay price but they don't seem anything special in regards to weight or hub/spokes
I would spend the £450 on a used pair of carbon wheels or some used Prime wheels at ~£250

+1 for used rim brake wheels, enjoy someone else's lightly used cast-offs for cheap, now everyone is moving to discs
I've got Prime disc wheels (RR 38) and they're really good - albeit my first set of carbon wheels. I did get them s/h but un-used though. I'm not sure there's much around new that's cheaper, but I can't comment if others are better at the same price.

Three sets, one of which is carbon and very happy with them all.
I did indeed buy them @ogden and have been impressed.
They are my first deep section rims, and first tubeless. Even in recent strong winds they have been fine in a cross wind sense, and the tubeless just worked.
I got the campag conversion freehub, which was also easy to install.
I think they have made me quicker ?
I would buy again.
