Hi,

Planning on going tubeless and considering some new rims also. Most of my riding is XC so lighter would be better though I'm not a weight-weenie. I'm quite light (70kg). Any suggestions for wheels off the shelf or rims/hubs for a build?

Cheers

    Rims

    Stans Arch EX or Crest EX, they're good and tubeless and not the heaviest
    Mavic XC or Trail rims - I can't remember the code
    Superstar Rims

    Hubs

    Shimano
    Superstar
    Hope - If you can stand the noise

    Pre build

    Hope hoops
    Shimano
    Superstar custom build


    I'm sure the other guys will come up with some more

    Superstar are selling Pacenti Teslas for 259 for the pair. Have gone for these on my Tallboy build and so far they appear sound - and I've battered them. Rim strip and went up tubeless no problem. Good reviews on this site and forums
    All of these things....
