If the rims themselves are decent, anything in the 50-60mm realm should be fine. On the extremes, you can have very deep rims that are stable in crosswinds, or you can have shallow 30mm ones that are an absolute mess. If you're considering the 180s, why not just go whole hog and look at Gokiso hubs instead? :)Ĭrosswind stability is all down to the rim shape and also rim/tire profile combination. If you can find them for a steep discount they could be worth it, but that's about it. I gotta ask: why on earth would you consider DT180 hubs? The improvement they offer over the 240S is so marginal, and while the 240S set is firmly in 'high end' price territory the 180s are obscenely expensive. Is hunt wheels just a gimmick or do their wheels seem to hold true, does any of that wind tunnel testing actually mean anything? If anyone else has any other option that seems to fit my needs, please let me know! I know about yoeleo and light bicycles as well. Hunt Wheels - 48 Limitlessįarsport set is about $200 cheaper. They come in at slightly over 1600g for the set. 48mm deep, unsure of what hubs they're using if I'm being honest. It's their 'in house' 48 limitless wheels. Second option is a set from Hunt Wheels.This set apparently comes in at under 1300g. First option is a custom built set from farsports, DT swiss 180 hubs, 40mm deep carbon aero rims, 24H/24H front/rear.I'll be running 700x32c tires on either set. If my goal is to just go faster, would a lighter wheelset be the best bet? I want a set that will be good for climbing/a set that wont be too held back by windy weather. I live in southern California so there is some crosswinds here and there in the area that I live in. Before I get started I wanted to address the fact that some Hunt Wheel rims are apparently sourced from farsport wheels? Can't find a definitive source but it seems to be well known around reddit (just google it)Īs far as I know, any of their rims/wheels that say aerodynamicist are made in house and aren't sourced from farsports, correct?īasically what my question is, what wheelset should I go for? This wheelset will 100% be used for road riding. So, I'm looking to pick up a new wheelset and I've got a few options to choose from.
