Looking for advice for wheels for racing

[WMW]

I read on some wheelbuilders site that the seals on the WI's are minimal. Plus side is a very smooth hub, down side, it's a 'good weather' hub with more maintenance compared to f.ex a bombproof DT240. But one with a good geometry...

Bearings on WIs are very easy to replace and they are a common size (cheap and easy to get). DTs aren't hard but they require special tools.

If necessary. I've seen WIs that have gone > 30k miles in all weather on original bearings that are still smooth as silk.

..... You say you want clinchers but for race wheels you seriously could use tubulars. There are more and better choices in race tires in tubulars than in clinchers.....
