Currently have a Specialized Allez Sport 2013 with the Axis Classic wheels, need some advice on what to upgrade them to as I've read they aren't great wheels to keep on,

thanks

    I'd use the search function on here as this is a question that gets asked every day :wink:

    If you do want anyone to offer any more helpful advice then you'll need to give a bit more info.....type of riding, budget, your weight etc etc.

    Get yourself some hand builts, loads of good wheel builders about who can build you a decent wheelset to your exact requirements.

  • You'll get a pretty good H Plus Son Archetype build for £400. Mine were £300 with Ambrosio hubs and Sapim spokes, and are awesome.
