And if you're buying factory wheels, make sure they are convertible, and ideally that they come with the parts in the package.
Worth bearing in mind that the through axle business remains in flux, so the frame and fork you buy next year still might not be compatible with whatever wheels you buy this year.

Thru Axels! I don't understand them.
My current cross bike takes QRs front and back, but Thru Axels seem to be the way forward. If I was to purchase new wheels, I would like them to be Thru Axels, as I'm thinking about changing the fork (initially), and changing the frame (eventually). Is there a convertor I can use to use QRs on my current frameset, until I change over to Thru Axels?
All the best,
Morgan
