I am intrigued by your wheel selection. Perhaps you could start a thread on your selection criteria, and what makes a good wheel, in your opinion. I imagine you could have many subscribers, and perhaps rack up thirty or more pages.
Oh, and they are both Hot, as an expression of personal style and functionality.

The timing seems right to try to sneak this one through.

Im afraid this thread will get locked unless people start posting some bikes that are remotely close to being considered hot!

It's a hot in my book.

Hey, my bike retailed for almost $2000 and I made a lot of personal customizations, including new wheels. That has to make it hot, right?

That Kona's getting me kinda hot. Would be hotter with black chainring and a fork with no red on it, I think.

Yellow accents on the fork would probably have worked better, though the red picks up the bit of red from the saddle. I probably need gold hubs.

Cross/Gravel bike pics must be posted in hard-used, dirt-encrusted poses to gauge hotness.
What wheels are those?
