Fixed or geared the golden rule is only race what you can afford to crash. All the racing (geared) i've ever done has been on aluminium framed bikes with 105 gruppo and wheels no better than Fulcrum 3's. Luckily i've never crashed but have seen a lot of expensive carbon in shreds be it frame or wheels.
In conclusion I would suggest the Mavics. The ellipses are well thought of and should do a job for you
