Also the favero pedals are a good lightweight upgrade. The wheels are pricey upgrade but if money was no object they're a great option. Great video

    Weight is not everything, but for sure lighter wheels is the best upgrade in this regard. I only changed the tires on my Gravel to road tires, saves me maybe 400 grams but the bike rides much better. As I ride more or less only roads in summer time, this was worth the 80 Euros. But apart from this I don't care too much about weight saving, as I carry minipump, multitool, tube, 1,5 l isodrink, gels, vest, etc. I think the weight won't be really low anyway on a long ride...

I opted instead for the shallower SLR1 36s which gets close to the Cadex wheel's weight at a fraction of the cost...........they just don't look quite as cool, however.

I don't like the pizza sized and waffer-thin cogs on the outrageously expensive cassettes, the excess wheel dish to fit in the extra range, and the terrible chain line.

      I covered that in the issues but, but they are covered by a 5 year warranty - not sure what happens after that period though!

      He said they replace the wheel in the first year of warranty… then after that they charge you for repair but at 50% off. which sound like marketing speak. then after the fifth year your out of warranty and they will ignore you.

    That freewheel sound is awful 😅. Definitely would prefer near silent. These wheels seem like they are just creating landfill. The spoke design seems horrible to me, having to replace the entire hub is just dumb. They might ride wonderful and be fast, but for a non-pro it just doesn't make sense to me. To anyone that loves them, that's awesome, these are opinions for me, I hope you enjoy them!

      Near silent would mean low-engagement freehub mechanisms, like my 2008 Mavic Aksium Race, but the engagement angle is pretty large.
      There's a silent one I know with instant engagement, Onyx Racing. Another silent one is FOSS' Zero Drag hubset, which completely disengages the freehub mechanism when you backpedal slightly, leaving the tires and hub bearings as the only sources of friction. I pick up speed on this hubset quicker than any other hubset I've tried.

      Just put some grease in the hubs.

      I've heard of people smearing the mechanisms full of grease, the viscous kind too.
