Hybrid Wheels
I’m looking for a good pair of 700c wheels for my Trek Dual sport 3 that I bought used. It currently has AlexRims ACE17 wheels. I believe they come stock with Bontrager TLR.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Need more info regarding what "good" means to you. Stronger wheels? Lighter wheels? What is the budget? Disk of rim brakes? Quick release of thru axle? (Probably QR). Are you looking to run tubeless?

Thank you, for replying. I have not cycled in a long time. Im looking for a set of 700c wheelset around $300, I believe this bike came originally with Bontrager AT 750 wheels. They cost $150 for the wheelset. Not interested in tubeless. The rest of the bike has original components. deore hydraulic brakes with tektro disks and Alvio rear derailleur I like black wheels and black spokes 32h. I can get more info off the bike if needed.

Ask your LBS if they have any "take-offs" from new bikes...many buyers upgrade their bikes and move their expensive wheels over, getting a price reduction from the shop for the factory wheels. I got what I thought was a good deal on a set of Mavic Aksiums with practically new tires in that manner, when redoing my hybrid a couple of years ago.

Velomine has many good budget wheels, even less than $300: 29er Wheelsets Velomine.com : Worldwide Bicycle Shop, fixed gear track bike wheelsets campagnolo super record vintage bike
I bought a wheelset for rim brakes from them some time ago, people recommended it to me here at bikeforums.
The wheels are machine built, they will need some retensioning of the spokes.
