    Thanks Paul, looks like a nice set up but not in my budget after purchasing the new bike.  I went with stages for power and still unsure about the wheels.  I'm going to wait till spring on the wheels.   love my new bike!

    Yvette-- Sweet bike! There are lots of great wheel options. Most of them will start with how much you want to spend and what types of races you envision yourself doing (and your bike handling skills).

    I would personally do just about any course with my Zipp FC808s (with a disc cover on the rear). That would be for flat or hilly or windy courses. BUT, I race at ~180lbs and have very good bike handling skills. Crosswinds don't bother me. There are certainly cheaper wheels out there and there are lighter or less deep versions. Some little peeps or people with shakier handling skills might be ideally suited with a different option.

    For wheels on a budget... you can't go wrong with Flo. Get a set of Flo 60's and you're all set. $900 for the set brand new.
