Soul also has a variety of white wheels. The reviews appear to be good.

Try Greg Ryan of Two Wheel Enterprises (TWE) in Sydney. He will custom build to any spec- any budget - comes highly recommended from me and many others.

Are those weights correct? 2650gm for the set??? I'm no expert, but even I know that's MASSIVE!jeff_o wrote:i found a cheaper white wheelset in ebay. they look nice just not sure about the quality. bit heavy though and not bladed spokes from what i can see in the pics.

@ozdavo: yeah i think they're really heavy... plus the seller responded confirming that it's not bladed spokes. must be some budget wheelset with heavy compos.
@drmutley: i din't know ksyriums came in white... they look nice.

They came on a new bike two months ago, and have been ridden once.... But sit in the corner unused (with 5 other wheelsets) so if ur interested google what they are new and make me a secondhand offer (if that helps u out)....jeff_o wrote:@ozdavo: yeah i think they're really heavy... plus the seller responded confirming that it's not bladed spokes. must be some budget wheelset with heavy compos.

I love my white DT-Swiss Tricons. 10K and still look new (ish). Bulletproof and not too heavy.
Ha ha ha! Cookies on dowels.

I am one of the 'Many Others" ...... +1 for Greg at TWE. He has always been able to accommodate my choices for components and colour.
