Greetings, new member 1st post here and hoping to learn from and add to your community in the future.
I am a long time MTB rider, in Arizona and 180lbs just about 6' tall getting ready to finish building a gravel/road 40/60 bike.
Its a whole new world for me and trying to understand the differences. I am trying to stay sub 500$ for wheels and from the research I have seen in the 1800g and under is a pretty respectable weight range for GG wheels.
Main use will be gravel adventures on the dirt roads in central, desert AZ (which i consider all gravel roads) and fire roads in the mountains. training as well on the farm roads surrounding my community.
Possibly bikepacking in the future... so weight concerns could sway my choice.
I have a Lynskey Ti frame as a base to my build, and plan on running Hydro Disc brakes.
These Mercury M1 Wheels are on my short list of options, they are on closeout for this year.
Does anyone have experience with Mercury Wheels or this wheel in particular, good or bad?
These are 24h but supposedly strong, but don't know any better if that's a good thing or bad thing.
