    Date Reviewed: December 14, 2007
    Favoriate Trail:commuting
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Price Paid: $60.00
    Purchased At:LBS
    Strengths:Feels firm and well constructed
    Weaknesses:Only 32 spokes. Don't care for the black/silver color scheme, but I pefer that over all black.
    Similar Products Used:Stock wheelset that were of poor quality
    Bike Setup:Full suspension with Rock Shox Dart 2, SRAM 7-speed. Avid Single Digit 7 V-brake with Speed Dial 7 levers.
    Bottom Line:Shimano Deore wheel [and hub] with Rhyno rim. Nice wheel. LBS agreed to sell only the front disc wheel to me because I had already purchased a new rear wheel from another shop. Mistake on my part was to buy the rear wheel at REI before checking with a good LBS. REI had the only 36-spoke brass nipple (DT Swiss)wheels I could find. The Deore/Sun Rhynos are 32-spoke, which allegedly won't make a difference if the front wheel is well built and strong. But bike expert Sheldonbrown.com says the more spokes the better and that manufacturers are forgoing those 4 extra spokes only to save costs.
