Hey guys
I live in thailand where it's sandy, rainy and some very steep gloves, so looking to upgrade the stock maddux rd 2.0 which with around 17 tons.
My budget is tight, but I want something that will last and not need upgrading until I'm dropping Quintana. I've been looking at the Hunt x Mason 4 Seasons https://www.huntbikewheels.com/collecti ... less-ready
... which are pricey for me, but 'good value' to many reviews. Other recommendations I've had (inc reading one here) are for much cheaper wheels, ie cosine and fulcrum Racing 5 lg. Any thoughts?
I've been recommended aluminium as the roads are potholed and scarred
Cheers

    I have a set on my Kinesis - run them all through winter on commuting duties - all weathers, c 100 miles p/w. They've been rock solid so far. Stiff, well built and roll nicely. Good wheels for the money I'd say.
    Kinesis Racelite 4s disc
    Kona Paddy Wagon
    Canyon Roadlite Al 7.0 - reborn as single speed!
    Felt Z85 - mangled by taxi.
