They're stiff and light, with ceramic bearings and an in-house designed hub.Choosing the right road bicycle wheel set depends on your riding needs. Do you want a versatile, all-around set or one that is specifically suited for sprints and climbing?

1. Weight

A good wheel set will improve the performance of your bike in a number of different ways. Typically, the wheels that come as standard on many off-the-peg road bikes are a little on the heavy side and uninspiring in terms of ride quality. Upgrading to a lightweight set of training wheels can make a huge difference to your cycling experience.Road Bicycle Wheel Set is an example of a good quality carbon deep section racing wheelset that comes in at an impressively low weight of 1,670g.This is thanks to the use of carbon spokes and ceramic bearings. There's also an aluminium nipple to the hub which reduces weight further, and makes the wheels durable for all kinds of riding conditions.  This wheelset is versatile enough to be used for both climbing and descending, and can be run with tubeless or traditional tubes.

2. Aerodynamics

The wheels on your bike are the only components that actually touch the ground and help you ride, so upgrading them is always a worthwhile investment. The type of wheel you choose depends on the riding you plan to do, but there are a few key features to consider:Aerodynamics are especially important for road cyclists because they ride at higher speeds and thus face more wind resistance. A more aerodynamic wheel means that you waste less energy overcoming air resistance and more of your effort goes towards propelling you forward.As you shop for a new set of wheels, pay attention to the rim depth. Wider rims are more durable, but they can also make the wheels feel heavier. Some rims are also tubeless-ready, which means that they can be run with standard road tires without an inner tube. This can save you money, time, and effort by making tire changes much easier. But, you need to be sure that your frame and fork are compatible with tubeless rims before you go this route.

3. Durability

Whether you're after a do-it-all set of wheels, something light enough for racing, or hardy to handle rough roads and gravel, there are some universal considerations that will help narrow down your options. Rim width, tyre and tubeless compatibility, braking options and more are all going to affect the kind of wheelset you end up with.Stronger, more durable wheelsets require stiffer spokes and are generally more expensive. The benefit of this is that they'll stay true and roll better, even under load.If you're looking for value, Hunt offers a wide range of wheel sets that are affordable and durable.
