Time to decide on a wheelset. I'm trying to keep things under $300 for a pair. I've been looking at the Mavic 717's laced to XT hubs, but am not so sure on the Shimano crap. I ride western PA singletrack and race, so weight and strength are also considerations.

Anyone have any suggestions? I'll be reading the comments.

I just bought the pedals (Crank Brothers Candy C), in yellow.

Juicys to come very soon...
