Time for wheel upgrade..?
I'm riding a Trek 1500, 4 years on original components (minus tires). Wheels are stock Bontrager Selects with the wonky double-spoke pattern. In the last 500mi, I've had to readjust a wobbly front hub twice, true the front wheel twice, and have had rear spokes suddenly loosen and send the rim out of whack. The front wheel feels like its flexing side to side on aggressive climbs; I can even see where the tire has rubbed on the inside of the fork.
They've been good wheels for the past 4 years (I've lost 58lbs since I bought this bike!), but is it time to upgrade to something newer/lighter/stronger? What are some moderately priced options? I see lots of Ksyriums and Eastons lately.
Thanks
