Seems a cheap light-ish wheel for £150.
Anybody seen, used or have any opinion of these ?

Looks OK, wonder how tubeless-friendly the rims are though

I'm still in the dark ages regarding tubes, so I don't really care 🙂
Also looking these from Merlin - [url= http://www.merlincycles.com/bike-shop/wheels/mountain-bike-wheels/sale-wheels/pair-shimano-525-hubs-stan-ztr-rims-26.html ]ZTR Olympic on Shimano 525[/url]. A strange combination, but only £120.

they seem good for the money, does anyone know if the front can be converted to 15mm?

I'd go for the Merlin ones. They're a little cheaper, but more importantly they use 'normal' spokes, so far easier and almost certainly cheaper come repair time.

There's some nice Hope's in the Classifieds. 🙂

@cinnamon_girl And if they weren't 3 bolt rotors I'd be on them like a shot (although I've already got a pair of Hopes, and have had all the jokes about their noise)

@cp Merlin certainly have a good rep when it comes to wheels. It's just the combination of some of the lightest rims made on some of the heaviest hubs seems a bit weird.

Normally in threads like this njee20 comes along to point out some 1250gm wheels for only £2.50 ... he said hopefully 🙂

@ rusty - sorry, was being a wee bit cheeky I know! Nothing wrong with those soothing-sounding hubs, got them on 3 bikes. 8)
