Andro Posted August 16, 2012 Share Had the old ZTR Olympic rims with DT rev spokes, red alu nipples and Tune hubs, they were bullet proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMD 1 Posted August 18, 2012 Share American Classic make a 650b wheel set. They are light and strong. Maybe about R5k to R6k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went through the same debate as you recently, and decided to have a wheelset made up around Hope Hubs - much better quality than the factory wheelset hubs, and easier to service - and Mavic EX 721 rims. The Mavic's are much tougher than the Crests, can take wider tyres more easily, and will withstand much more of a battering.I am also 68kgs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
