These wheels actually seem okay

14 years ago

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.

Solid Commuter Wheel.

12 years ago

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.
