Mavic CXP22 / Shimano RS10 / Bontrager Race

Which are the best wheels?

I think I'd choose the RS10's out of those. I'm wary of Mavic cpx22's because outside of the rims, the rest of the wheel, ie, the spokes and the hub are potentially an unknown, it depends on the wheelbuilder!

i have shimano RS30's. just broke a spoke on the rear. the break was inside the nipple and I'm finding it difficult to find a replacement spoke and nipple. something to think about if you go the shimano route

"Better" wheels.

Thanks for the comments, but I have a small budget as they are for a training bike. I can buy all for a similar price, but the only ones that are new are the Bontrager Race. Does anyone have any opinions of these.

Let me put it another way. The choices I have now are RS10s with Hutchinson tyres, RS10s with Shwalbe Durano tyres (both sets little used) or Bontrager Race with Bontrager tyres (brand new). All at a very similar cheap price. Which you you go for.

Mavic's everyday. I ride the CXP33 rims with Shimano 105 hubs, had them 12 months, never gone out of true, still run as smooth and bombproof
