Did anyone else snap this wheelset up for £54 at CRC/Wiggle, mine arrived today, Fratelli/Spank made dynamal rims, Pillar db spokes, original packaging too, I was expecting OEM at that price. I only bought them for the rims so I've got a superboost HG and 20mm non boost hub to put on eBay shortly, hopefully it works out at umpteen quid a rim or less, I can reuse the spokes too.
The front hub was listed as 20x100mm which is a weird BMX size. Is it 20x110? Either way it's a odd hub combo. I considered it but decided I already had way too many wheel spares.
Isn’t 20x100 just the old front hub size. I’m pretty sure my old Marz Dirt Jumpers are the same. Shame the rear is 135 qr or they could have been an option
It's a mistake, 20mm hubs for mtb have always been 110mm, 20mm boost just spreads the hub flanges further apart and puts the rotor 5mm more outboard so the original 20mm hub just needs a 5mm rotor spacer to work with newer dh forks, 100mm was the first 15mm hub for some stupid reason.
I did consider it since my Knolly is Superboost rear, but realised that the front axle OD wouldn't fit inside my fork drop-outs even if I did add an axle spacer. Sure, I could rebuild the wheel, but that's more than I can be arsed with for spare wheels that i don't really need.
I've found out where all those wheelsets went, there's a dude on eBay selling them at £200. He must've spent several hundred quid on em.😀
