Wheels got delivered today, a I killed my afternoon and evening finishing it up. It's ready to ride tomorrow. Stoked.
It came in cleanly at 20 lbs as it's pictured. I was hoping for a little lighter but this is still really good considering it's burlier than my roadie and is carrying 1.9" wide tires. I'm looking forward to hitting some Pisgah gravel tomorrow. If anyone is looking for B+ road/gravel tires, these (Panaracer Gravel King 650x48) set up tubeless with the least effort of any tire I've set up tubeless so far. Also, the new Ultegra is hot fire. They integrated adjustment for "cable tension" into the clamp on the derailleur so you can ditch the barrel adjuster and run completely internal cables if you have one of those fancy bikes with 100% internal routing and still have the ability to easily adjust your indexing.
