Go deep or not?
Sorry to start another which wheel thread but I just can't wrap my head around which wheels to buy. I have been riding on Shimano Ultegra 6700's tubeless which have been great wheels but I just want to try something different. Just a little history, I'm not the youngest rider (43) but enjoy getting out to do 30-60 miles a couple times a week with an occasional 75-100mi ride a few times a year. I have been riding on 700x23 Fusion 3's tubeless for the last year or so and really enjoyed the ride but recently switched to Schwalbe One's (same size) and have noticed some great results just switching tires so now I've got the upgrade bug. I thought I was set on getting a set of HED Ardennes plus or having a set of Belgium plus built up with my choice of goodies but I'm thinking that even though I'll lighten up by around 1000 grams and get a bit wider that they're not that much different than what I have to justify spending $1,000+. On the other hand, if I were to get the Jet 6 plus or the new Reynolds Strike's which are now tubeless I'd be about the same weight I am now, have the wider rim, and a 60mm deep profile to help me pick up some speed which is where I'd like to improve. We don't really have hills to speak of here in Central Florida so climbing isn't an issue. One of the bike stores I frequent has been trying hard to get me on a set of Assaults but from what I've researched they're not deep enough to get me the aero advantage I'm looking for but they're lighter than my Ultegra's. I think I've talked myself into getting the Jet 6 plus's but would like to hear from those of you that have gone from a shallow aluminum clincher to a deep 58+mm wheel either all carbon or hybrid like the Jet's and what you liked/disliked about the switch, Thanks!
