If you're not really carrying much, the Synergies are probably heavy enough
to go with the Caz. That said, how about a fourth option:
-Lighter with BBShoe for fast recreational rides
-Current Synergies/dynamo with Hetres for commuting/all-roundering
-A third inexpensive front wheel
As always I am debating a 2nd wheelset as a way to avoid buying another
bike. I'm curious as to whether I should go heavier duty or lighter duty.
The facts:
- Saluki
- Current is Shimano Dynohub/XT rear to Synergies (32/36)
- Currently splits commute duties with the SimpleOne
Wants:
- One
You might check out the PL23 or SL23 rims while they are on sale. Machined
sidewalls but they are nice rims. Anthony at Longleaf is willing to have the
sale rims drop shipped if you want him to build wheels.

Long ago I tried to do everything with a nice steel mountain bike with 3
wheelsets: gofast, 12-19 7 sp with 1 Turbos; commuting wheelset, 13-21 and
Fatboys; and off road: Farmer Johns and 14-32; all on Araya RM 17s.
It was better than just one wheelset, but not as nice as 2 or 3 different
bikes.
Oh, and more recently I had 2 wheelsets for the Fargo: the off road one and
a Rhyno Lite one with Kojaks. The disk brakes made the swap relatively easy
(tho' it's hard to dial in different rotors for the same calipers).
Again, 2 bikes works better for me.
