Default Spinergy Xaero Carbon SS or Mavic Carbone SSC?

Hi there!

I'm seriously in the market for some carbon aero wheels for under $1000 and I'm having a really hard time finding any reviews for the new Spinergy Xaero carbon SS wheels. I was wanting any comments from you peeps that might have them? How do they compaire to the Mavic Carbone SSC's? From what I've heard about the SSC's are once you get them up and going (22+ mph) they just roll like a mofo. Do the Xaero's roll like that?? Are the reliable? I can get either of them here locally.

Thanks!

Well after talking to my LBS that sells Spinergy the owner said that they were crap and sent his stock back. He said that he would mount a tire and the wheel would go out of true, which is not unusual for the first mounting. So he said that he took off the tire to retrue, put the tire back on and it would go out of true again. He did that 6 times or so and the rim would never true so he sent back his entire stock.
