First, let me begin with some background information. My bike is the 2010 Jamis Xenith Comp. I'm 5' 7" weight is around 148-150lbs(depends on how much I eat that week XD). Since I'm also a fighter, I'm going to drop weight to around 140-145lbs by next month, this depends on how much I would like to experiment with my body weight. If I decide to pick up a fight during the summer, I might go as low as 135-140lbs. I hope people don't take my information the wrong way because I don't want people to tell me to drop my weight first and etc.
My budget is $500, but don't mind paying a "little" bit more if it's worth it. What I want is wheels that are light? As you should already know, I'm a weight-weeny(hope I'm using the term right) with my body, so why not with my bike too
. Anyway, the real reason is, I use to hate climbing hills, but now I'm loving it . Every time I see a hill now, I get extremely excited to climb it and have a huge satisfaction after climbing it. I don't mind aero/semi-aero rims, as long as they don't really impact my climbing ability and weight. Right now these are what I'm currently looking at:
Soul S3.0SL
Williams Wheel System 19
Boyd 30mm Alloy Rouleur wheelset
YishunBike Stefano 38mm Clincher
Do tell me what you guys think of these, how are they, and which one I should get(and why)? It would also be nice if someone can point me to a proper review too. Remember, I'm not limited to only those, I'm open to other recommendations and suggestions. Also, I might get a new cassette to go with the new wheels, so some recommendations and suggestions on that would be nice too; this is not within the $500 budget for the wheels.
