I have a felt f85 with mavic cxp22 rims on felt hubs. I've been offered some shimano rs10 wheels at a good price. Thing is will they be any better than what I have?

    What are you prepared to pay at an absolute maximum? If you give a price you may give us a better idea.

    Too give you an idea spud I'm currently paying installments to my LBS for a set of mavic krysium elites for £450 . I've been told these are a great wheel so I'm going for them . I know they can be got cheaper if you look around.

    If you don't have disposable income for new wheels, don't buy new wheels... yours are just as round and do the job and are easy to repair, which is not the case for some expensive products you have to pay instalments for... :wink:
