Robby's Redemption

I like the fact that the writers knew that by this time, people would think Robby was only rude to women, so they had him publicly humiliate the two paramedics. Turns out he isn't a misogynist, S2 Robby is just a jerk(I say this half joking, as I think he has a method for his jerkiness)

Cheap wheelset

I just started cycling again (bough my Canyon Endurace last year, then got sidelined with health issues). While looking up what spare tubes to buy, I found out there is a recall on my wheelset. It looks like it is taking as long as six weeks to get DT Swiss to turnaround the recalls, so I was considering buying a cheap aluminum wheelset in the meantime to stay on the bike.

Are there any brand or specific wheel recommendations people might have for something cheap and dependable (weight is not a concern here)?

Edit to add: I am targeting around 100 to 200 dollars (the cheaper the better) for a spare wheelset

Edit to add: My current wheels use disc brakes

Newish to cycling, need advice on what to store with my bike

A year ago, I bought a Canyon Endurace CF Di2. I didn't get to ride it too much last year because of the heat and a few surgeries. I have started riding it again, but really only around the neighborhood. I have a 1.5 mile loop I can do where I am never more than a mile from my house, so I have not worried too much about carrying tools, pumps, tubes, etc.

I want to get into some group rides or rides further from my house, so I will need to be properly equipped. I am new to cycling, so I am not sure what to keep with my bike (I have top tube storage that can carry some stuff)

  1. What should I have with my on every ride? What tools? What inflation devices?
  2. The wheels it came with were DT Swiss Dicut 1600 35mm. They say they are tubeless ready. Does that mean they are currently tubeless, or that I can convert them to tubeless? How can I tell if they are tubeless or not?
  3. If they do have tubes, how can I tell, from looking at the wheel specs, what size tubes to get?
  4. What type of tubes should I get?

I know that these are topics that have been discussed in part in other threads, I was just hoping to get all the answers in a single thread.

Thanks!
