Deep section rims for gravel?
Is there any point in having a deep section rim wheel for gravel? Considering the tires go 37C+ and with way more aggressive threads than road ones and at slower speeds, there can’t be much aero benefit to deeper rim, can it?
Sure deeper rims are more rigid and perhaps allow for fewer spokes, but the rims also get heavier especially when wider as gravel tires would require. So what am I missing that gravel marketed wheels are not basically the same as trekking ones?
