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.

Certainly hoping to shed some weight off the bike..From what i understand, the Giant PR2 wheelset that comes with the bike weighs in at approx 2kg.
