Hi,

I just pulled the trigger on the BMC SLR01 Disc three - ult di2 and was looking to lighten it up a bit. The obvious place to start would be the wheels. It came with DT swiss PRC1475 35mm which are ~1550g.

I was thinking something between enve 3.4 -zipp 303 without the ridiculous price tag. I'm 72kgs and do enjoy rolling hills and climbs. Not really fussed on tubeless compatible as I don't find the hassle worth it.

Any suggestions on rim/hub/spoke combo and where to get them built and there experience would be greatly appreciated? I'm based in Australia.

DT Swiss ARC Dicut 1100 47mm or 62mm!

Light and very fast.
