Half price on wiggle now only £150. Is this a bargain or are there better wheels out there for similar money? Are the wheels any good? Only do XC riding. Thanks.

    Good value for money at that price if you know you won't need tubeless.
    The nearest wheels are the Shimano MT65 which are tubeless compatible, 100g lighter, straight pull spokes and arguably better looking. But they are cup and cones unlike the cartridge bearings in the DTs. They are £185 from Merlin.
    Also consider Mavic Crossrides.

    I also spotted these :)

    Would these be much of an improvement on the wheels that came with my Trek 4300? :p Theyve got some kind of Shimano hub with Bontrager Ranger rims
