I need to buy a second wheelset for riding on light off road but mostly road when i dont have time for a 4+ hour jaunt onto Exmoor.

[list=1][*]Fit 1.5 tyres[/*]
[*]Looking to spend as little as possible[/*]
[*]Single speed is an option[/*]
[*]Disc only[/*]
[*]20mm thru axle on front[/*]
[*]Standard QR on rear[/*][/list]

What should i be looking at?

My only advice is to use exactly the same hubs and rotors as your existing wheelset. That way you avoid any brake alignment issues.

i'd love too, but forking out for a second set of DEEMAX just for the road is just wrong!

Get one of those spank / switch superstar wheelset offers for £150.

I don't need another set and was tempted 'just in case' !!

Hope Hoops £240 from Winstanleys. Might as well buy a half decent set as you will only end up regretting buying cheap and cheerful when they break.
