What are you hoping to gain ?

Many folks upgrade to 1) Save weight. Expensive. 2) Replace a crappy wheel set on a basic bike due to spokes breaking, which is usually the rear wheel in any case, so maybe only a rear wheel needed. 3) Looks. Deep carbon wheels look great. 3) Have a set of racing vs. training/winter wheels. 4) Have a set of wheels with different tires - gravel bike with a set of big dirt tires, vs. a set of 25-28mm road tires.

Defining your goals helps us make a recomendation
