New 700c wheel needed and I need a rim.
For the gravelocipede it'll be 32h and laced to a dynohub.
Width?
I run these, 435g:

Same rim with machined brake surface, cheaper:

I was thinking 23mm rims and there is no need for a brake track but they don't offend me either.
You can't have strong, light and cheap. You can only have two of those at any one time.
Pfffft.
I've got a set of the Aerotrack on my commuter laced up to Novatec disk hubs (32h) - been faultless over the last 2-3k miles although when researching them I did read some reports of a few cracking round the spoke holes when under high tension, not the widest compared to the current crop but have used them with 32c tyres quite happily. I'm sure they're actually the same as the Aerorage, just with the brake track anodized / painted.

Halo Vapour is wider and only 25g more.
I have stans grail rims which seem very good,is £62 cheap? That's the best price I could see with a quick Google.
I love the look of Archetype rims, but am wondering if Mavic TK540 would be better in the long run.
