    Wait a while until the Aksiums are on offer again. You just missed a €125 deal in cycle superstore last week but they'll come around at that price again.

    Really nice wheels, I've been riding them for the last year and a bit.

    I give Aksiums a big thumbs up, Been on them 2 years and have not had to take a spoke key to them yet despite the state of our roads. Very good value.

    I have the fulcrum 7 and wouldnt buy them again. The freewheel is way too loud and they flex from side to side when out of the saddle even after being serviced and i wouldnt be heavy on them either. have the 5"s on another bike that has done 6000 mls and no problem at all with them.

    If you're going for the RS30's check out Merlin. Only £120 with customer login and "Shimano10" discount code.
