We run the NOBL CR35/45 combo on our gravel bikes because we spend a certain amount of time riding on pavement and the clincher-type rim firmly holds various widths of tires. By pairing the CR35 rim on the front with the deeper CR45 rim in the back, you get a nice combo of stiffness and acceleration with small bump compliance. We built ours up with i9 Solix hubs and Berd Spokes for the ultimate capable, light, strong gravel wheelset. Plus they feature a lifetime warranty, so you don't have to worry about putting them through the wringer! Discount code below.
