Go here for SP wheelset: http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/w6503236135dyno.htm
We have 4 bikes with Logo Evo's. None are used for tourning (though they could be). All are used with Ortlieb rear roll tops for toting stuff. They replaced folding Wald baskets. Here's the thing... they attach/detach in about 5 seconds. The attach/detach convenience means you'll use them ALL THE TIME. Some folks like front loads. I am not one of them. The front is for unencumbered steering and unobstructed light placement. I can get 95% of my commuter/errand needs in a handy roll top. It's out of the way. Does not change bike handling. It's one of those belated discoveries that really surprised me. Like you, I had no interest in panniers. You'll love the Pitlocks. Hauling a big, heavy cable around sucks. The Pits weigh less than or equal to regular skewers. I use mine with a Abus Granit Futura Minu U lock. If you sink a heavy duty ring bolt into your cabana, or better: http://www.abus.com/eng/Mobile-Security/Bike-Safety-and-Security/Locks/Wall-Floor-Anchors The bike will stay loyal to you.
