After a set of 11 speed (preferably) carbon clinchers in good condition for my first wheel upgrade on my old CAAD12 - the aksiums it came with have taken some serious abuse but their time has come.
Rims: clinchers, the wider the better, By preference I'm after an alloy/ally brake track I.e. mavic cosmic, shimano c50 etc but not too fussy. If they’re tubeless ready then even better.
Hubs: sealed bearings if possible unless they’re Gucci level shimano (ultegra<), freehub in good condition with minimal bite and must be 11 speed
Ideally not looking to drop more than about £400.

Hi all,
trying to assess whether ive got incompatible threads on my lockring/hub and whether ive bought the wrong sprocket, any help would be hugely appreciated.
Recently snagged a set of H+Son rims laced to some Brick Lane Bikes hubs (https://www.bricklanebikes.co.uk/blb-track-rear-hub-silver).
I picked up a miche track spocket
https://www.wiggle.co.uk/miche-fixed-track-sprocket/?sku=5360331481and a surly lockring:
https://www.wiggle.co.uk/surly-track-cog-lockring/?sku=5360344057Last night i popped the sprocket on no problem (only to finger tight) and then offered up the lockring on the smaller thread, it threads pretty easily across the first 1-2 threads then starts to get stiffer (not cross threading), im loathed to put anything more than finger strength into tightening it at the moment in case ive got the wrong collection of bits here. Surly do say their threads can be a little stiff and can change the angle of the hub threads, but i was under the impression this only relates to their sprockets.
Apologies in advance if this is a real virgin question but im desperate to get my new build rolling!
