My typical ride is solo, around 30-50 miles - 2000-5000' over those distance. The typical climb is 5-6% / not many killer 12%+ extended efforts. We do group rides and those typically are fun or super fast. The fun ones I could do on beater wheels. The fast one I need everything; I treat them more like training and even transitioning to the back is a challenge to drop back but keep the speed up high enough to not fall off the train.
On my old rim brake bike, I had Mavic Cosmic Carbone SLRs (58mm) and just loved how, once through about 20-21 mph, they would leap up to 27-28 with not a ton of extra effort. it's that feeling I'm aiming for.
Have looked at the Enve 4.5 AR too -- wide like the Pro 3v but deeper like the XXX4 and XXX6s.
Wheels will be on a Trek Domane SLR
