hi all , i have a trek ex 8 2010 , with bontrange duster rims with deore hubs front and rear. Time for anew wheel set.
Its fair to say i know jack shit about wheel/hub combinations , i like to jump my bike, and slogg the XC and go places like Danbury/chicksands ?, which rims / hubs are worth looking at, more something light weight, that will compromise to the dusters..
I know budget is major factor, but lets forget that for now so i can get a feel of what i should be looking at !
£200 to £250 your opinions please

Put the Crests on for XC, use the existing wheels for Chicksands.0

What weight limit would people recommend for crests for XC? I'm almost 16 stone, am I too lardy?0

I think 190 lbs.0

Yep, 190lbs. I went for Flows - the Stans website says they (well, the Flow EX) are good to 250lbs.0
