    REI Members get back an estimated $ 3.60 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

      Comments about Alloy / Alex X101 Front Wheel - 700C:

      It's a wide rim solid road wheel. I was concerned i won't be able to put a 23mm tire on a wide rim but it works great. Wider rim means stronger and makes it very versatile you can probably go anywhere from the 30's all the way down to 23mm wide tire.
      It was nicely tuned up by REI shop, even tension, perfectly straight. Easy rolling, no adjustments needed on a hub. Great wheel.

        Comments about Alloy / Alex X101 Front Wheel - 700C:

        I actually wanted to get nicer wheels, but the next more expensive model seems to have poor reviews. These arrived true and with even spoke tension. I did grease the bearings, but it turned out to be unnecessary. The hubs are a bit crunchy, but I think they may smooth out a bit with use. The spokes are not stainless steal, just regular steal, so I will see if they rust out. In summary, they seem okay for my commuter. I will monitor how well they hold up over the long term.
