Hi all, I currently have some Mavic Aksiums with very worn rims on my road bike. As such, I’m weighing up my options for a suitable replacement pair of wheels - budget is probably around £200. Criteria other than that is basically “slightly nicer than the ‘entry level’ Aksiums”.
Questions are:
Are the Mavic hubs worth getting relaced to some new rims (I.e. are the standard Mavic hubs actually any good? I haven’t had any issues, but I’m after longevity and low hassle.)
If the answer to the above is no, what would be the recommended hubs?
Would the most appropriate (cost, durability and performance) rims be Kinlin XR31s? Any other suggestions welcome.
For the spokes, would regular double butted Sapim be sufficient?
