I fianlly just thought fuck the money and went to condor for a new bike. It's going to be a pista and when I asked about wheels the guy who helped me said open pro rims weren't as good these days and that condor's own rims would be better. Is he right? Also, I'm not sure if I'm going to put it together myself or get them to. I'm not massively bothered about weight, more toughgness and reliabilty. I'm intrested in hole options too, someone reccomended me 36 on the back and 32 on the front, or is 32 plenty? Hubs i honestly have no idea about, are they more important than rims or what? i want to spend around 200 and i'm going to use them for couriering.
also, is it worth spending monet on a crankset or just getting an ok one?
