Still very much a beginner here
Purchased a 2nd hand Trek x-caliber 9 a few months ago and in my eagerness swapped out the stock Bontrager XR2 tyres with a Minion DHF front and Aggressor rear.
I find myself doing more XC / trail than aggressive riding and also using the bike for gravel rides. To get to the gravel, I ride about 10km on pavement which is stupendously slow and a real grind on these tyres.
I’ve kept the stock tyres and think I need to get a 2nd set of wheels, put the XR2 tyres on and swap the wheels over depending on the type of riding I’m going to do.
What are the collective thoughts on this - do others have 2 sets of wheels/tyres to do different types of riding?
