Road Wheels & Road Wheel Recommendations?

19mm tubs

I just saw this xxx

what are the benefits for wider rims on the track?

Indoor track? Bugger all, I would've thought.

Trying to decide if my Trav should be that colour or Navy (Trafalgar) blue. Supposed to be deciding fairly soon...

So stick with 23mm wide rims with 23mm tyres? As much as I want wider rims, I'm not really too knee in stretching a 23 tyre over a 25 rims.

Tubs or clinchers? If tubs, I'd go narrower than 23. I run 22c Cronos on wide 808 Firecrest tubular rims. If clinchers, then 23s on 23s. You might be able to get 23 clincher tyres on 25 rims, but I'm not going to volunteer to try it...

Have you measured how wide those Cronos actually come up as?

I've had a 20mm tyre on a 24mm rim. It's fine.

Nope, but it's noticeably narrower than the brake track. I'll try and remember to do so once I get back to the UK.

<21mm on 3 different rims for me.

Two wheelset, one for track, one for crit.

I don't think there's manuy obstacle on the track to worry about riding on tyres smaller than the rims.

This is probably most sensible thing to do, and it will hopefully justify the magic io wheelset...

Do you still have your track wheel you use on the street?

When I started my part 3 I pretty sold off everything regarding to track...

It also depends on the tire shape. I have Schwalbe one 25s on my Aeolus 5 wheelset and they are perfectly aligned. I tried a Michelin pro4 23 and that also align (I only don't use them because they no longer sell them)

Other than 200 grams, what is the difference between the R24 and R23 wheelsets, do they both use r460 rims?

Really happy with my R24s. Leaps and bounds better, and the best part of £100 cheaper, than the Arc22s they replaced

Other than 200 grams, what is the difference between the R24 and R23 wheelsets, do they both use r460 rims?

No, the R24 doesn't use the R460 rim, it uses a cheaper pinned joint rim. DT claim 120g difference, not 200g

I see. Not worth the extra £100 then. Will get the R24's. Ta

Not worth the extra £100 then

That's the conclusion many of us have come to :)

Anyone got any experience of V Sprint wheels? Thinking of getting some carbon tubs and seem like good value.....mainly for racing/attempting to ride quickly....

Varno is forum approved!

UTFS: there's a thread.

Discount code is "LFGSSprice" I believe.

Thanks....on that basis I'll give them a go!

Any recommendation on a decent carbon tub rim to build up on 24h rims?

I'm struggling to find anything online without going down the Chinese crabon route. I'll do that as a last resort but I'd rather have some branding behind me.

Want these:

But wallet says these:

Does anyone have the latter? Or any experience of either? Planning on running kojaks for road riding over winter and something like 40c nanos for dirty stuff over summer.
