I'm looking to upgrade the wheels on my hardtail.
They're 650b+ boost wheels. Absolutely no idea what I'm looking for, just want something a bit lighter than the anchors it's currently fitted with.
Any recommendations?
Depends on budget , Hope at £400 look pretty good unless you are after a wider than 35mm rim
.
You'll be able to get a custom built set of wheels for less than £400 with Hope pro4 and a rim that's more appropriate for a + build than a 35mm Hope rim.
The current wheels have 35mm rims so not sure if I need anything wider than that?
I've got a set of boost roval traverses (38mm rims) I'm looking to move on for £200, inc tyres?

I’m interested in the wheels, could you send me some photos please?

I bought Hope Easton Arc 35mm off CRC for about £375 on offer. Great wheels and not a bad weight. I used to have 45mm rims but I didn’t like them, too heavy and cumbersome. 35mm is the sweet spot for plus tyres in my opinion.
