Looking for some Lightweight, Tubeless, Carbon, climbing wheels any recommendations? Rim brakes. Budget flexible (to a point).

Few guys I ride with have said good things about these, albeit they ride the clincher version...

OP requires tubeless, but those are tubulars only.

Budget stated as "flexible" may not equate to "unlimited" hehe

Guess it really depends what you want, but since all Giants Pro level bikes now come with Carbon Tubeless wheels the 2nd hard market is becoming flooded with them, particularly as this level bike is being bought by people who already have a preferred set of wheels to use.

There are loads on ebay or facebook etc, you can even find totally unused ones for the above reason. eg http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=40...

Curses... You are indeed correct.

They will offer you an insurance premium on them. Think its around $500 per wheel.

Bargains all around!

at £4k+ I'd be expecting 10 years worth of 24 hour worldwide roadside assistance in event of puncture hehe
