buying wheels

[paulmad]

im thinking of buying some wheels for my voodoo bantu from rose bikes, and could do with some advice to avoid buying the wrong ones. what do i need to know before ordering ? i know i have 26" wheels, 6 bolt discs but little else.. im looking at these, dont need anything fancy or expensive http://www.rosebikes.co.uk/article/xtreme-mtb-wheel-set-26-m-zx-19--free-jack/aid:339671 thanks in advance

They're not disc hubs, don't buy them!

I recently bought a set of Superstar wheels, similar price, similar quality and no shipping costs from Germany. Check out their website (note they are usually Presta valve wheels, so you'll need Presta valve tubes, as I found out).

Also Shimano do sets of wheels at about the same price point but you may need a disc adaptor for them.

Assuming here, both wheels are Quick Release on the Voodoo?
