Can anyone recommend me a 29er tubeless ready wheelset & tyres?
Will mainly be used for Singlespeed on my local loop so the clicky Hope rear hub is not a favourite.
Inital thoughts are for Shimano XT on ZTR Crest rims with Maxxis Ardent tyres (non-UST) with sealent. (About £350 new)(Hope +£100)
Trying to keep the cost down & I have a pair of XTR centre-lock rotors to use.
But what else should be considered - under £300 would be great - should I wait for the January sales?
Whats a reasonable weight for a 29" wheelset - 1800g ??
I use Paul comp ss hub which is really nice and quiet on Stans arch. Great rims
Sorry I want the option to use gears too.
Using ZTR Hibs on Arch's with DT comp spokes, light ans so far very strong. The hubs are very smooth. Stans Raven/crow mix tyres in summer, Bonty Mud X TLS in winter. well recommend all of it
The American Classic 29" wheelset is supposedly pretty light and tough, not tried them myself though (think they're £400 to)...
Using Stans rims, yellow tape and Bonty Mud-x 2.0 tyres. Very impressed. Highly recommended.
AM's too expensive!
Are ZTR Crest rims too light in 29" hoops?
superstar sent me an email off the back of the last thread i posted regards this
stans crest 29ers on some of their hubs for 230 quid .....
finding it hard to not go down that route !
Thanks trail rat - looks about my budget.
