Disc brakes are all the rage these days, for good reason. They offer great braking in all weather, especially mud-laden cyclocross, dusty gravel races, and cold winter training rides. What do disc brake bikes deserve more than anything? A great set of wheels.
The LT is the HED Ardennes lightest, fastest, and fanciest version, with Sapim spokes and HED's 545 J-bend hub.
All clincher Ardennes Plus Disc Brake wheels use the same 25mm wide, tubeless-compatible rim, to bring the most out of your tires.

I bought these for my daily commute bike. Its early to be able to fully endorse the wheel set. I have about 500 miles on them so far and they are still true with no strange sounds. My understanding is that HED wheels are supposed to be pretty bullet proof. For reference weigh about 175 lbs, my commute has me over some semi rough pavement. I run these wheels on a steel Niner gravel bike with Schwalbe Marathon tires. 700x32
