Subject: Wheel upgrade question... When I had my bike built a few years ago, I spent the budget on frame and groupset (Look CF & Ultegra ) but had to cut back on the rest because of budget... Having made some good progress with my riding I'm thinking about upgrading the wheels as the next step, but I am getting really confused by all the different options available - alu, CF, aero styles etc etc.... Right now I have Bontrager Race Lites and have a 9 sp cassette. I am interested in finding out which type of wheels I should be looking for? I am 180lbs, want something to ride for training, racing and ideally longer 'social' rides as well. I thought it was about light weight but have also been told to look for an aero wheel for benefits in general use? Can anyone educate me or point me to a reference site where I can learn more about the type of wheels best suited for my needs please. The more I read, the more confusing it all gets... Thanks |
