    Looking for a solid Front and Rear Wheel Set for a good price.

    I was looking at getting some Customs IRO's.

    Any suggestions?

    I don't really know/remember where iro wheels stand quality-wise, but this place is cheaper by a few bucks:

    if you can handle not having colored rims or whatever.

    Comparison between Cane Creek Track V's and Gran Compe?

    Both go for about the same price only downer is CC doesn't come in black
    but not big issue.

    I have a set of black velocity deep v's on formula hubs / black spokes that I'm thinking about selling.. the front had a brake on it for a little bit so the brake track is kinda scuffed a bit.. but other than that they are golden.

    I'm looking for a super duper light wheelset. Any ideas? Willing to trade my (rear) DP18 and Campy Proton (front)

    when you say super light what do you mean..

    carbon rims, cx-rays, and tune hubs?

    seriously though, Mack hubs are over 100 grams lighter than most fixed gear hubs.. coming in around 190g.. go with cx-rays or something light for spokes.. and then any decently light rim will give you a wheelset WAY lighter than most people are running.. like pounds lighter..

    Here is a review on those hubs.. they arent too pricey either.. kinda wish I had a set.

    Yeah nothing too fancy, definitely seems like that hubs are the heaviest part of the wheel.

    Dilonious:
    I was going with the CC's for lightness, perfect size wall, and straight spokes(stiffer).
    they are at 350 shipped online. I like the classy look of them.
