Looking for an upgrade to my Roval Terra Cs for my Crux. I’m planning to keep the Rovals for a road setup, but want to get something a little more race focused for dirt. After a recent top 10 I’m about to go Dylan Johnson on this bike and try to find every marginal gain possible LOL. Trying my best…

reserve 40/44 with 350s that you might find on sale, retail for $1799 but definitely not the lightest

See this thread for possible candidates: [image] Need a light set of gravel wheels Equipment I am looking for a high quality carbon gravel wheel with a focus on weight. I want to keep price to around $2500. currently I am looking at the Enve G23 and Roval Terra CLXii. …

Light Bicycle and Nextie both make wide 40-45mm depth rims. I have a pair of the LB WG44 rims on DT240s, they’re ~1400g, cost under $1500 and I’ve beaten the hell out of them with no issues.

Zipp 303S. 45mm deep, 23mm inner width. I have a set for my road wheels but a lot of people use them on gravel. I went slightly shallower and wider with the Hunt Gravel X-Wide (35mm deep, 25mm IW).

I recently picked up a pair of 9velo GV 35 2.0 and they offer a 45mm variant. Quite light, with DT-style ratchet hubs, and Sapim CX-Ray spokes. They are oos at the moment, but available again in August, apparently. Gravel GV Series 24H/24H (9velo.com)

SwissSide has their 42 mm deep Gravon wheelset on sale for less than 1,000 € . SwissSide is an aerodynamics expert, apart from making wheels they work for a lot of the bike manufacturers, optimizing their designs.

That is almost an exact copy of the DTSwiss GRC 1400 (the old model, not the new one published two weeks ago). The only difference is that SwissSide has now downgraded the hub to DTSwiss 370; earlier it was the same 240 as the GRC 1400. I believe the rim is the same that the GRC 1400 used. DTSwiss a…

[image] kervelo: That is almost an exact copy of the DTSwiss GRC 1400 I don’t think it is a copy, I reckon it is a jointly designed product. To get rid of the stock they have before releasing a new one, they put it on sale. 1,000 € for a quality carbon wheelset from a well-respected wheelset …

Yes. By copy I did not mean it in a negative sense. The companies have been working together and both have their own version of the same product.
