I saw the Hunt ones, and even though they seem very good, I started drooling by the Scribe Carbon Gravel Wide++. The question is: am I crazy for wanting to put a U$1,000 wheel in a U$699 bike? I use it for commute and also for some weekend gravel-trailing, so I could definitely use the added lightness and compliance of the carbon wheel...
Any thoughts?
Also, any tire suggestion that could go with it?
Thanks!
my first upgrade was a 36t narrow wide chain ring. It gave up a little speed on the top end but have that .75-1 climbing gear on the low side has made all the difference with Colorado’s mountains.
