I am in the process of upgrading the standard wheels on my Giant OCR 2 bike.
I have narrowed it down to the Shimano R540 and Bontrager select. This is all my budget will allow me (I am a poor student)
What do you reckon?
Is there any alternative to these two? i have looked at the Mavic Cosmos but they don't seem to be as good.
Bare in mind I live in the UK, so I might not be able to get some of the brands. My parents live in Italy though, so I might be able to get something there.
Finally, I wanted to ask a maybe stupid question. If I buy new wheels, will they come with the hub and I'll have to fit the cassette on? What sort of hub will the come with?
Thanks!!
