Cane Creek Zonos Disc SS Wheelset
Product DescriptionThis wheel combines the performance and punishment-defying strength of the Zonos with the added control of disc braking. To optimize wheel durability, the rotor-mountable hubs include disc-side Torque-Transfer Flanges, front and rear. For the same reason, both front and rear Disc wheels include asymmetrical rims to improve wheel dish and equalize spoke tension.

from SLO, CA Date Reviewed: October 31, 2011 Strengths: Trick/unique design (nipples at the hub, not the rim), bullet proof on the trail. I've ridden these hard for over 2 years and never even had to true them. Reasonably light. Amazing customer support. Weaknesses: I saw another reviewer comment about tires being hard to seat properly... me too. I tried the 'overpressurize' method of seating and acutally cracked the rim (center web between spoke holes)! Never seen that before. Cane Creek is replacing under waranty, even though the wheel is over 2 years old, so no hard feelings. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Any Singletrack Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $250.00 Purchased At: Ebay from Cane Creek Similar Products Used: Tried many, many differnt wheels over the years, just about everything but the $1000 flavors. Bike Setup: 08' Rocky Mountain ETSX70
