    Like most I’ve considered wheel upgrades from time to time but I have disc brakes, centrelock hubs (though I know 6 bolt will still work) thru axles front and rear and I weigh around 100kgs.
    My current wheels weigh in at 1988g.
    Looking at the options that will take my weight and fit the criteria of what they are replacing for around £400 I can save 270g. JRA jawbreakers.
    There are others that will give me similar savings.
    So question to the learned collective is what would you look to save weight wise and for what price? When does it become worth doing?

    Just bought a set of hunt

    Just bought a set of hunt disc with tubeless schwlbes fitted. My old wheels were a bit heavier than yours but it feels like a new bike for 350 quid with a weight limit of 115kg I doubt you will get a better bigger bang for your buck.  Gone for 28c tyres lovely!
