Pondering a relatively cheap and light road disc set
Pacenti SL25 24H (£20 each at PX)
Bitex BX106F / BX106R (£121 for the set at Spa)
Sapim D-Light spokes (~80p a spoke)
Should be around 1500g
So £200 for the parts, then someone to build them. Skewers, rim tape etc...
So... £300?
Or is it not worth the faff, and should I just look at something like the Hunt 4 seasons for £300 which are ~90g heavier but seem pretty well thought of
I'm 72kg, would be using them as an all weather set and would have something more fancy/aero for anything race related
Save >£20 by using ACI, only 40-50g extra. I wouldn't use weight weenie spokes for 24H disc wheels. Actually, I wouldn't use weight weenie spokes at all, but that argument is well rehearsed.
