A bit of lighter wheels would be nice, but considering the bike is 23lbs now, it probably won't make any difference.

The main reason i want to upgrade is the friction in the hub. I tried to take it apart and grease it, but it's hard for me to handle the bearings in these wheels since my eyesight isn't what it used to be.

I want to get a rear wheel with rim brakes that uses tubes. I see tubeless is what most people are riding with but i'm just not comfortable using something new. I intend to go fancy when i get a newer modern bike sometime in future.

I tried to lookup Shimano website for 105 wheels with rim brakes and supports tubes. They all seem discontinued and not available online.

If you have a rear wheel recommendation for something around $200 with these specs, please let me know.
