Wheels apparently are heavy and it's the best upgrade for the bike.
Good set of disc rims needed?
Budget?
£400 - £500
Mavic disc I've just found on leisure lakes!
Kinesis for <£300 for a good, light enough wheel set.
I'd check the weight, or have a look at the Arkose thread, the stock wheels may actually be reasonably light at 1800g. You'd be spending a lot to save not much weight and lose some versatility if the replacements aren't as tough.
I wondered about this, but I like the bombproof nature of the wheels, so I'll stick with them for a bit.
Well, I've been reading a review of the bike and the guy mentioned about how bad the wheels were but I don't get the bike until next weekend to see how they compare to my whyte Suffolk I've just sold. (Wheels way a ton but solid)
