Don't forget to talk about how you want the wheel to feel. Spoke type, lacing and count can make a big difference, as can hubs.

I have one set of wheels with T11s, Sapim Race and Archetypes. Unbelievably smooth, solid wheels, with some good life to them. A good fit personality-wise for a quick distance steel bike.

I have another set with R45s, CX-rays and Ambrosia rims. Stiffer, much more lively, with a sort of instant-on vibe from the hubs. Great on my race bike.

Both are 3x 32 hole. I'm 215.
