right folks, clubbie rider here, dont do races, just weekend runs and during weeks . over varried road conditions and weathers, have two otpions for wheel upgrade , as above, both with tyres included, unused taken off new bikes, £200 for the comsics or £300 for the ksyriums. What would you take, is the extra £100 worth the less weight but not tubeless otpion? Or go cheaper (and bit more blinger) tubeless option?

    less weight option and haggle him down to £50 difference using the other wheels as leverage.

    or some carbonzone deep rim full carbons for less money.

    lighter, blinger, just as strong, bearings etc just as good, make a better noise.

  • Is the carbonzone ones from China? Be wary of buying cheap wheels in that respect

    yes they are and they have been around for years andloads of people use them and they are more than fine: better than something like a Hunt for far less money.

    Chinese stuff is fine so long as you check out the dude selling it.
