Excellent Wheel for Avid Cyclists

I'm so impressed with this product. The wheel is incredibly lightweight and rides smoothly. Plus, its tubeless design makes frequent punctures a thing of the past. One downside is the price, but it's undoubtedly worth the investment. Sports and Outdoors enthusiasts will appreciate the durability and performance of this wheel on challenging terrains. Overall, I would highly recommend it to serious cyclists.

Pros
  • Lightweight and durable
Cons
  • Not compatible with all bike frames

Best price for this weight and performance

I've been using it for a season already. It's really light and works very well. I've jumped 23ft and have never flexed a wheel - despite being a light rider, this wheel should never be jumped anyway. With this wheel I can ride more aggressively. Like it a lot!

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Speed

Great transition from 26 to 650b!

As previously advertised. A good compromise between light weight and strength. I used them to convert my 2012 Santa Cruz Superlight to a 650b and I feel like I made the right choice with the wheels. I could have gone a bit lighter and assembled them myself, but for the price these wheels seemed like a good option! The hubs feel solid and the wheels roll easily, just what you need. Also happy with the big wheels on the 26s that came with my bike. Good compromise as I'm 5ft 6" and I've always…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Good but not great
