DT Swiss R24 Spline
I considered Fulcrum LG but went with the DT as they looked like they should be a bit stiffer and there was something I liked better about the hub design, although I can't remember now what it was.

to use for commuting

Commute the rims into oblivion, rebuild the hubs into many, many more commuting wheelsets. Factory wheels are basically disposable.

Superstar pave 28, under £160 with a current 20% discount code.
Quite light, quite wide.

Hi, Im after a wheelset for not more than 150 pounds, to use for commuting (leaving the bike sometimes locked) and be back in RR once a week. The ride is a Condor Fratello that with the new Tiagra 4700 groupset on the way.
So (stupid dream) light, strong and cheap wheelset... Yes I believe in flying elephants!!!
I arrived to consider:
Fulcrum Racing 7 LG (~£110)
DT Swiss R24 Spline (£139 on ROSE bikes)
Bontrager race (£149 from buyabike.co.uk, even if I do not know this website)
Pro-Build Chosen Hub/Alex CX28 (~150 on Merlin)
Was considering the Shimano range as well but I get confused with all the different models and they all seems to be max 20.8 mm wide.
Any suggestion please?
