    Campagnolo Zonda or Fulcrum Racing Quattro.

    Just bought the zonda's and have done 150miles on them. Brilliant wheels so far, a definite step up from shimano RS10's.

    ZOndas are good, though if your shimano you maybe lucly enough to get a set off RS80s for around that price, also a great set of wheels.

    What' great about them? The fact that they flex when you climb, the fact that if you damage a rim a replacement one costs more than a new wheel or the fact that if you need a spoke it takes you three weeks to get it?

    Racing Quattros would be my choice for that money. Currently extra 10% off from merlin cycles.

    Had a similar decision to make. Just bought the Quattros from bike-discount - £218 with free delivery.

    Best of luck with your choice.
  • Google Kinetic Two K1 Wheels. Deep profile aero rims that look cool and are pretty bullet proof?
