Hi guys,

Last year I bought a Specialized CruX E5 Sora with disc brakes. I bought it because, it was kinda cheap, I liked the colour and I had a unused 105 groupset wich I immediately used to upgrade it

I like the bike very much, but I hate the Axis Classic wheels. They're heavy, really heavy!
This week I got my hands on a pair of Roval Control SL rims wich I'm going to use for building a way lighter pair of wheels! I will still use my old wheels, but just for some on-road training rides.

So, besides hubs, spokes and nipples I also need new discs. I'm using 160mm up front and 140mm at the rear wheel.

I'm really a newbie regarding discbrakes. Is there any difference in quality? And what type do you guys recommend?
