  • Disc wheels for crosser (700c / 29er) – good, light, cheap?

    Going on a Cotic X for bridleways and forest trails (no big fat rocks).
    I’m pretty light and go easy on wheels so don’t need anything too burly.

    What’s the best bet for up to £150 max?

    just got these for cx, not tried but seem well made and meet the budget Fulcrum Red Power 29″ SL Disc. Great service from bike-discount from Germany as well

    XT hubs on open pros from lbs

    This is what I started with. Bombproof, relatively cheap and easy to fettle. Moved on to using a pair Speedcity’s now in the summer, but go back to the XT/Open Pro’s in winter.

    do CX frames have spacing for road hubs or mtb hubs?

    Most disc cx frames now seem to be spaced to 135mm which makes sense considering how few 130mm disc hubs there are.

    FWIW, my 130mm spaced CX frame takes a 135mm hub just fine though.

    lots have neither and are in the middle – even carbon/ alu frames don’t mind 2.5 mm out.

    I got Mavic Open Pro on Hope disc hubs from Hewitts, very impressed would recommend 😉
