Hi

I'm a relative newbie to MTBing and would appreciate some advice on the following. I am seriously considering buying a Canyon Nerve AL 8.9 29er (http://www.canyon.com/_en/mountainbikes ... ab-reiter2) and I would like to buy a wheelset upgrade to get the weight of the bike down a bit.

Can anyone recommend a good/compatible wheelset upgrade for this bike? I'm thinking in the range of £300-£500.

Cheers

    Why not buy the AL 9.9 which is £400 more, 800g lighter, and comes with a lighter, better wheelset, and far superior brakes?

    I will use the words wife/cloak/daggers if you know what I mean ;-)

    It's a good point though, I think I myth just do that.
