If I got the bundle the wheels are essentially $300 since you have the option to just buy the fork and dropouts for $150.
I'm a noob to all this so wondering if there's a comparable wheel set from another brand that's a better value or should I just stick to this bundle?
For reference I have the X Ambition Gen 2.

You can also set up your old wheels tubeless. You just need some tubeless tape, it works on most wheels.
I was able to find a set of tubeless wheels used on facebook for cheap, but honestly if it were me, I would want the thru axle conversion too. It’s so much easier to work on the bike in my opinion. QR wheels aren’t terrible, but much easier with TA. You also won’t find wheels cheaper than that (300) from what I’ve seen.
I have used this set for 4 years and they have held up great. I have put over 10k on the set and only broke 1 spoke and that was a result of a crash. They are currently on sale. I dont think you will find a cheaper wheelset of this quality at this price point. You can use the discount code below for an extra 10% off.
