Super happy with this whee; set. I got both the front and rear tubeless ready wheels to replace my stans no tubes which have been super frustrating with leaks etc. These are air tight and hold air for very long periods without appreciable air loss. They are solid and much wider than my prior set which makes it much easier to swap tires etc. Great purchase. I got mine on sale and glad I did. No more pumping air all day during bike packing. A+
Purchased for my Priority 600x a year ago. Excellent rim and hub. Have taken it across 8 countries bike packing with no issues. Dirt road, gravel chunky terrain and paved. Very happy with purchase.
