I'm trying to ascertain the difference in the different levels of giant TRX carbon wheels out there. I am specifically interested in the 29 inch versions. I don't see them on the giant website anymore, but the 0 level wheels were twice the price of the 1 level wheels. It didn't give any information at all about the 2 level wheels. My understanding is that the rims are the same, but different spokes and hubs. Anyone have any specifics regarding this? thanks!

According to:
https://nsmb.com/articles/giant-trx-0-wheelset/

"carbon rim that is common to both the TRX 0 and the TRX 1"

"The TRX 0 wheels retail for $2100 CDN. For that you're getting a carbon rim, laced with Sapim Super spokes, on DT Swiss 240 hubs"

TRX1: "you're getting the same carbon rim, laced with Sapim Laser spokes, on DT 360 hubs."

No idea the difference when you go down to the TRX-2, but stands to reason same rim but lower-quality spokes and hub there vs the 1.

My TRX1 carbon wheels have the DT360 hubs but are straight pull. The TRX2 are Jbend spokes probably on the same hub.
