Orbea good

Shimano Ultegra good

American Classic wheels good (but not sure about weight restrictions)

The Onix with that build kit was popular circa 2005-ish.

Onix was the entry level Orbea carbon frame - I think the fork has the alu steerer as opposed to a full carbon unit.

R8k should be in the ballpark depending on condition.

I don't know the official weight limit of the 420's, but most lightweight wheels will be tested 100kg+.
