Look at these... http://www.light-bicycle.com/all-mountain-29er-carbon-mtb-wheels-clincher-tubeless-wheel-ready.html#.UnydcfmmjPo

Got a the rims for R2000, hubs for R3500 and soles and build cost R2000, so R7500 in total. Way cheaper than carbon wheels I have seen, nothing under R12000.

I bought carbon rims from China (the all mountain version, which are wider and rated up to 130 kg) and laced these onto DT Swiss 240s. Super stong and weigh 1490g for the set which is lighter than Crossmax SLR's. Could not believe the difference, had to learn a whole new riding style, with far less gear downs required.... These light wheels just make a bike feel turbo powered!!! Wish I had believed this and done it years ago!!!

Why not go for the bike winning every race in the European Enduro series, and currently 1, 3, 4 and 6 in the combined rankings?? http://www.cube.eu/en/full/allmountain/stereo-super-hpc-160-slt/

Will also only take my bike to Joshua - after being DISGUSTED with Northcliff Cycles. You can phone him on 073 261 7483

Well i can tell you that me Giant Anthem X2 2010 with SID fork and XT wheelset with carbon seatpost and handlebars and mostly XT groupset weighs 11,7kg with pedals (size L) i would guess you looking at similar maybe 11,5 or so for the 2011 X1...
