Which wheelset would be best for UK roads out of these options?
The question is pretty much in the title of this post. I found some wheelsets online I don't know which ones would be most durable for the UK roads. My current bike is https://www.rutlandcycling.com/bikes/ro ... ack_323873
I have upgraded some components already, the spokes of the wheel started to snap week after week so now I need a new wheelset.
Here are my current finds within the budget that I happy to spend.

2. https://www.evanscycles.com/mavic-aksiu ... 6-EV254265
3. http://www.wiggle.co.uk/fulcrum-racing- ... -wheelset/
4. https://www.tredz.co.uk/.Mavic-Aksium-C ... _85569.htm
That is all really within my budget, I'm really leaning towards miche but I have not decided yet.
Which would be the worst of the best? In order

the mavics and fulcrums are both very good value, well made and (should)
need very little or no maintenance.
If after a couple of years of abuse you need to pop out the bearings and replace its a job of ten minutes and the hubs will be as good asnew. Rims should last years . Id be happy with either.0 -
You probably can't go wrong with either the Aksium or the Fulcrum 7.
To throw other options in, you may want to consider prime wheels:

The prime race wheels look light for the money - but I don't know enough about them to recommend them.0 -

None of those are more durable than the suggestion I made then.0 -
