Why?

Wheel 1 = 50mm, 21 internal, 1300g
Wheel 2 = 60mm, 21 internal, 1700g

The more I read the less I see a reason to seek the lightest rims...... what do you guys think?
if you really prefer 21mm IW, now can make it under 1300g of 50m, 1380g of 60mm

Wasn't there a post here re: hooked wheels ?
Most random posts I find are hooked wheelsets

I've been eyeing these wheelsets for a while now, but I am so confused with all the hubs. What should I look for a decent ratchet (DT) style hub? I am at 78 kg more or less climbing avoiding sprints if possible, if that matters. Any suggestions? 248/268?

Hi guys, I'm starting a new fast-gravel build and I'm obsessing over the wheelset. I’m aiming for something that’s aero enough for flat sectors but still reasonably light for climbing.

I’ve been looking at the https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005005909542773.html

They claim around 1375g for a 45mm profile, which sounds pretty impressive for the price. On paper it looks like a great balance, but I’m a bit unsure about going that deep for gravel use.

Do you think 45mm depth actually gives measurable aero benefits at typical gravel speeds (~25–30 km/h), or is it mostly marketing at that point?

Also curious if anyone has real-world experience with similar depth wheels off-road.
45mm depth is suitable for the speed, 50mm maybe don't take its advantage, there is lighter than 1375g

Hello,

Looking for something quiet specific but did not find much on the forum and online.
I'm lookinf for a wave wheelset at least 60mm deep with 24ùù internal width minimum (running 32cc tyres)

If someone owns something similar, please hit me up !

Regards,
I think 24mm internal maybe wider for 32c tyre ???21-23mm is ok

Narrowed it down to these two, running 45mm semi-sleeks for paved and very light gravel.
A mix of flat and climbs.
Only a few grams difference between these set. What do you think?
45mm tire size is suitable for 24mm internal, or wider internal 30mm if possible
