Shall I replace my stock wheels with my crossrides?

Hi, my Cube Attention (white and blue 
) arrived today and I can't figure out which wheels are better, the ones that came stock or the Mavic Crossrides (latest model). The wheels that came stock have alex rims and Shimano RM65 hubs. At the moment the stock wheels appear to spin better than the Mavics but is that just because they are brand new or are they just better?
Thanks in advance!

Very funny Scotty, now beam me down my clothes.

Depends on the rims - we have some alex rims on the Norco Fluids in our rental fleet and they appear to be made of some sort of tissue paper. I like my cross rides but they aren't particularly light or fast rolling.Closet jockey wheel pimp whore.0

The crossrides are almost certainly better wheels, cartridge bearing hubs, probably much lighter etc...-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:0 -
Personally I don't think they are much of an upgrade. A little better, but if you really want to see and feel a difference I'd spend a bit more.0
