Looking for a wheelset that I can use for light touring with disc brakes. I thought about getting a set of H+ Son Archetype rims on a set of Novatecs: http://www.stradawheels.co.uk/shop/h-plus-son-archetype-cyclocross/
Anyone had any experiences with the Novatec hubs at all? Would it be in my best interest to muster up £100 and go for the Hopes instead?
Are there any alternative suggestions that people have? Once I finish the tour, I intend on using those wheels for Sunday rides too. Is there any issue with using a stock wheelset on a tour at all?
