Looking to sharpen up my Dale Rize, so thinking of some lightweight wheels. Will expect ot go tubeless. Budget of £500. Any suggestions?

Stans ZTR's on Pro III's for me 🙂

+1 for Pro 3 and ZTR's.

How light?

ZTR Race wheelset? 76kg weight limit and a 'race only' set up though.

240s on ZTR Alpine?

If light matters, Hope wouldn't be on my list personally.

Thats a load a poo IMHO – I been running the ZTR 355 on Pro II SP for about 5 months now – I admit they are not as stiff as my 5.1D on Pro II std I have put them through their paces on Dartmoor (XC to All mountain) with no issues – I am about 76Kg in weight before shoes, camel etc.

ZTR hubs, Alpine rims, DT rev spokes

Should come in at under 1400g mark

Taken from the justridingalong website –
Light XC build (1370g/pair)
ZTR front and rear hubs
ZTR Alpine rims
DT Revolution black spokes & black alu nipples
£383.70

That's where my money would go

Or perhaps the same build but with an XTR hub from Freeborn weighing in at around 1377g and just over £400

Huh? I meant the ZTR Race (actually now called the Podium MMX) wheelset, which is 1210g, with a weight limit of 76kg and max pressure rating of 32psi.

They're a bit over budget, but the lightest you can get without spending silly money.

Sorry njee – didn't read it properly – my appologies 🙂
