awesme Posted August 28, 2012 Share Pulled the trigger last night, Was looking at putting together a set of ZTR Crests/Hope evo2 Hubs and Pillar spokes, in the end they're to close specs and these are such a nice special. They will go onto my 26er, which currently have 2 solid early human development/flint stone rolling rocks by the weight... The ZTR/Hope/Pillar is still planned for the 27.5. G ea70 were like R2500 @ crcea90 R4500 when the easton sale was on.Just pull the trigger on some HAVENS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 28, 2012 Share And the hubs compared to the Mavics? let's just say this - there's a reason they're running the Easton Havocs on the DH circuit. The Eastons really are that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DubbelBuys Posted August 28, 2012 Share ea70 were like R2500 @ crcea90 R4500 when the easton sale was on.Just pull the trigger on some HAVENS I saw that the ea70 are like R2300 on crc, but the rear is 142 x 12 & the guys at omnico doesn't know whether they could be converted to 135 x 9mmQR. Anyone here know? or know where to look for the 'axle conversion'? If it can be then I'll order the ea70 as well as a srt of havens as I've got 2 bikes & it can never hurt having 2 x such nice wheelsets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePubSA Posted August 28, 2012 Share It shows : Rear Axle Size: 135/142mm x 12mm bolt thru (axle not included)135/142mm x 12mm (in stock)i think it accomodates both >? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be carefull with the Easton only the M1 hub can be converted, I bought the EA 70 XCT a few months back great wheels make no mistake but you have to buy in the correct config As opposed to the M1 hub on the EA 90 which can be converted but Omnico have no stock and dont know when they will have Also with Easton as was told to me if the Hub packs in you cant get a replacement, so not the best wheel to buy second hand and also 24 spoke so not many if any other hubs to replace with. Given the type of riding done seems silly not to be able to get replacement hubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbelBuys Posted August 30, 2012 Share I got a reply from Simon from crc concerning the wheel conversion: "Hi Jacques,Thank you for your email.You would be able to run these wheels in your frame if you purchase the following Conversion kit.Nukeproof Kit QR Rear (Stock ID 117674)http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=34779This conversion axle simply slides inside the 12mm fitted to the Easton's and holds the wheel in place with a standard QR skewer.I hope this information is helpful for you. Please feel free to contact me with any further questions. Thanks,Simon " Hope this will shed some light, but I'm a bit sceptic whether it'll work for sure...
