As per above - looking for a set of cheap Aksiums. Preferably the newer wider rim.
Anyone know who's the cheapest?
So far best I can see is ACycles at ~£122

Anyone know of any better deals?
Also was looking at Superstar Components, and their range of wheels. What's the verdict on those products? I was looking at the Arc 22 Ultrawide

It looks like a decent set of wheels for the ££. Anyone got any real world experiences of those? They're a lot more expensive than the Mavics (albeit lighter, wider and probably more workshop friendly) but I believe there are occasionally discount codes that can be used that would bring that price down a little more.

Well that surprised me - until I looked and saw it was £112 for just the rear wheel, and is £198 for the pair. It is the wheel and tyre system to be fair, but that's not what I'm looking for.
The pair (without the tyres) is £144 on Tredz0 -
My mates love Superstar MTB stuff. Road club mate has some superstar wheels on his winter bike and he's very happy with them.
I've heard they are good but the bearings aren't the best. Still, they're a consumable anyway.0 -
I've had a few pairs of superstar wheels both road disc and rim brake, if you use one of their offers you can get a very good cheap pair of wheels, I've also had aksiums in both rim and disc, the disc I had problems with.0

Ahh, apologies for that - just saw the pic of the full wheetset, and the headline price. A bit misleading.0
