Steve, thanks! I'm kind of the set it and forget it type of guy, except the yearly maintenance. I'm definitely on the smaller rider size spectrum, and a lot of the advice given was geared toward average rider weights and sizes, so good to know that lighter wheelsets can handle good weight load as well, though I probably won't go lighter than Dyads.
I ordered Dyad wheelset through the bikeshop! Patrick, I ordered 32 front an 36 rear. So thanks for the advice!
