After some advice on rims.
Looking at ordering a custom build from CRC so choice is limited to what they can offer. Up to 2.5" tyres. Will be riding tarmac (in/out of city), off-road (days out, multiple day tours), really trying to nail an all-terrain fun and travel bike. No suspension.
Now the most limiting part - budget of around £300 give or take for the wheel set (excl. tyres). Hope Pro 2 Evo Disc hubs since need to be SRAM XD compatible. Plus the spokes. Leaves me with choice of rims priced around £30 each... Maybe 40.
Not including my shortlist here atm - but what could you suggest?
Any defaults people go for at this price and riding purposes? Or save up for something decent?
Cheers
