Thanks for all your opinions. I ended up buying the Roval Carbon Control 29er Wheelset because my LBS was willing to negotiate down to $600 to swap for the Alloy Rovals. It was just too good of a deal to pass up!
I am probably a beginner to intermediate rider but not a racer.
My gorgeous new bike will be posted shortly.
