have to say i done a lot of miles and a fair bit of racing on a set,well minded but as with all mavic the hub body bushing is crap and has to be replaced,through hub doctor it's not dear but it is a very lazy/cynical design in engineering

I've been running a set for the last 10,000 km. Well happy with them.

I've had a set for 2 years, heavy and reliable.

They aren't really a wheel I would consider an upgrade though, I think you are better off saving up for a lighter wheelset rather than having 2 sets of "budget wheels".
