Submitted by prphoto a Cross Country Rider from SFCA
Date Reviewed: October 29, 2008
Favorite Trail:Pine Mountain
Duration Product Used:6 months
Purchased At:SB
Strengths:Very light and strong
Weaknesses:price ouch! I work in a bike shop and cost was still $500
Similar Products Used:Velocity Blunt 29 basic build
Bike Setup:Steel rigid hardtail 853 reynolds (Jamis dragon29) and OX platinum fork(Salsa Cro-moto 29) avid BB-5 shimano drivetrain WTB Vulpine- 26lbs
Bottom Line:Wanted to drop some weight with my wheels so I went with the pro-build w/ CX-ray spokes and the new lightweight hub from Velocity. Dropped from 1800g (Velocity Blunt basic build) to 1675g and the wheel has performed well. As they say, put your money in your wheels.
velocity offers good value for a durable product even if you are not a hipster looking for pink rims (deep v)
