In brand bicycle heirarchy, it starts with the frame, then groupsets and wheels tend to come last. This is odd to my thinking. Better wheels with lower groupsets is better than say Di2 and cheaper heavier wheels. This is why wheel upgrades (which are easy to do) tend to be first on the list after bike purchase.How much would be spent on wheels after, or are these of good standard? If spending that much, wouldn't it be worth taking those into consideration as well
So I would consider spending proportionally more on wheels than groupsets than off the peg bikes tend to do.
I would also consider custom wheels too, you can have them tailored to your exact needs and if damaged or worn are readily repaired.
