Well I'll say thanks.

Just ordered one of their Tactic 29er wheelsets for £206. Looks really promising.

🙂

How?

I spoke to them at Mayhem about 29er wheels. When I got home I went on the web site, and I can't find any 29er wheels.

I'm sure they are there, but I'm damned if I can find them.

What made you go for those ones, Stacey?

neilm - Second page of wheelsets I think, Tesla Evo / Tactic AM. 29er rims appear as option in the drop-down.

I phoned up to get advice on weight and the guy was really helpful, I did mention the site could benefit from a filter to only show the required wheelsize. Sounds like it might be an oversight on new site.

S5. Just ordered a load myself, thanks for the tip OP!

I'm interested on what you think of those tactic rims they look like a bargain. I'm sure that I read that a guy raced megavalanche on the XC version of those rims....

jamie - Tesla Evo hubs appear to get good feedback on here (no mean feat) and are said to have fast pickup, rims seem a sensible weight and width for my needs, apparently wheelset weight is about 1833g for the pair.

Would prefer UST, but these were £200 for the set!

Are these not tubeless ready? So not a major issue I imagine for a slight bit of convenience, and weight.

Yeah I don't change tyres as much as I used to so can live with a bit of tape.

You got a 29er now or going for some seriously wide CX tyres?

Yup. Got a 29er while I wait for new CX model to be released in Sep.

It's cheap and cheerful [url= http://www.evanscycles.com/products/pinnacle/ramin-one-2014-29er-mountain-bike-ec055206 ]Ramin 1[/url], but tempted to put some new wheels on, as reckon Tactics, running tubeless, could save over a kg from the current anchors.
