gotta be careful with those 6.1s.. good for someone who gets new ones at the end of a race.. not so good for someone who buys them themselves.

as a mod i cant help you there and also wouldnt advise asking in threads,maybe have a look through the buyandsell section to see what there going for and price yours accordingly.

dt fr 600 is the new version of the 6.1 that was a terrible let down,if i were you i would maybe wait on the rim choice to see if dt have ironed out there bugs.

You have a decent wheelset, I would just keep them and save your money.

The FR600 is DT's new DH/FR rim. It replaces the 6.1 and uses a new stronger alloy that should alleviate the denting issues associated with the 6.1 rims.

Though the Deemax are fine. Switch only if you have to.

i can understand if you were going to buy them, but you already have the deemaxs... why would you replace a top end wheelset?? usually the only deterent is cost, so what's the problem?

its also the fact that deemax are a high maintenance and costly item to look after.
