Currently running the stock p-am2 rims on formula hubs that come with the 2015 trance sx, was thinking about getting some new wheels but the options and threads are endless. What would people recommend around the £300ish mark ? Preferably something off the shelf
Thanks
Just go with some hope hubs on something like stans rims they should be good
Or have a look on Superstar at their wheels
I have some SuperStar Tactic rims (23mm internal) on their Switch hubs which have taken a battering over the past 18 months. After a week of rock gardens in Ibiza (great place to ride, BTW - go see Ash at Ride Ibiza), a few of the spokes became loose in the rear wheel. Rim stayed true though.
Sent back to SS for their lifetime trueing service, came back - another week battered in Ibiza and this time all good (trying to keep up with an ex-Spanish junior DH champ in his back yard means your bike takes a beating)
Weight is ok (1800g-ish /pair), tubeless ready (never had a problems tubeless with gorilla tape), and the colour matches the bike (red on a silver/red Trance SX-a-like).
And bought in one of their 20% off sales, so came to about £170/pr - bargain!
