Touring Wheelset

Do you place overall strength and reliability over weight and asthetics? Do you want a wheelset that's more suited to wider tyres and heavy pannier bags? This wheelset is the answer to all of those questions. I've said it before, but Mavic make some of the nicest rims out there, and the A319 is no exception. It's wide, double-walled and double-eyeleted, and incredibly strong. Combined with DT Swiss spokes, and Shimano Tiagra road hubs, this isn't the lightest wheelset out there, but it's certainly one of the more bulletproof ones. Of course, you can always change the specs to suit you, after all, that's what custom wheelbuilding is all about, right?
