If I were you, I’d definitely choose a wheelset with a lower brand premium; money doesn't grow on trees, after all, and I’d rather use the savings to buy other components.

Why did he yell at you? Did you have a conflict before this?

Inner tubes are available on Amazon; however, since Tagoola may produce its own inner tubes in the future, it has largely stopped selling those from other brands, offering only a small number as complimentary gifts.

If you are fine with a 50mm depth, check out these Elitewheels https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005011875080482.html. They have a 23mm internal width which is perfect for what you need.
50mm is a bit deep for my mixed-road use, and 23mm inner width won't work for the wider tires I want. But yeah, Elitewheels seems solid for the price.

Looking for some wisdom from the community. I want to upgrade my wheels but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

Here's the spec I'm after:
  45mm rim depth—I ride mixed terrain (mostly road, some rough patches)
30mm internal width—I want to run 32-35mm tires comfortably, not just 25-28mm,disc brake

  I've been riding 28mm tires on 21mm internal rims and I want more. More comfort, more grip, more versatility. I don't want to switch to a dedicated gravel bike — my rides are maybe 85% paved road, 15% rough/broken pavement.Every 45mm wheelset I find has 21-24mm internal width max. The "wide" options like Zipp 303S are only 23mm internal. I found some gravel wheels with 30mm internal (like the Tune Nano Gravel 45) but they're marketed as gravel wheels and some are really heavy.

  Is there a true 45mm + 30mm internal carbon road wheelset out there that doesn't weigh 1,500g+?

  Also — am I overthinking the internal width thing? Does 30mm internal actually make a noticeable difference vs 23mm for a road rider running 32mm tires?

  Curious what you all think.

They haven't gone out of business. Since May 3rd fell during a statutory holiday period in China, it is highly likely that they simply haven't had the chance to process their emails yet.

Yes, that's the one. How did you get it for such a low price? Did you use some hidden coupon?

I bought a pair of 50mm rim depth Tagoola xplr tires and have ridden about 200-300 kilometers so far. They feel great and perform very stably on gravel roads.

Have you weighed it? Is this wheelset really only 1200g?
