Submitted by Random Tox a Cross Country Rider from Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
Date Reviewed: October 2, 2008
Favorite Trail:Gooseberry Mesa
Duration Product Used:2 Years
Purchased At:Came on a used renta
Strengths:Very sturdy and true.
Weaknesses:Engagement points.
Similar Products Used:Hadley/MTX custom set. Azonic Outlaws.
Bike Setup:'05 Trek Session 77, Formula Oro k24 brakes, Marzocchi 66 ata...
Bottom Line:Good strength to weight. Have taken much abuse but are perfectly straight. They weigh about the same as my sun MTX rims on Hadley hubs.

Some nice engineering makes them versatile. Can be converted between QR, 10 mm bolt on, and 150x12 mm bolt on with factory kits, and ISO or Shimano rotor compatible.

(I estimate) these are about the same weight or slightly lighter than my Hadly/MTX wheels and just as strong. They are much lighter than my Azonic Outlaws.

These would be my default ride but I prefer the faster engagement of a higher end hub.
