Azza Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Hi guys, ive got a big 3 day road event which I have been training for. The event is in mid April.. I have a 650 B mountain bike, which manages to easily fit a set of road bike wheels. The problem is the roadbike wheels cannot take disc rotors. So the 29er wheelset I can just put on some 700 by 28C tyres, which will help me tremendously on the road. The front wheel needs a 9 mm quick release axle.. So if anyone is willing to lend me a set that would be great.. And ill ive it back to you as soon as the race is over. I dont even need a cassette or tyres. Just the wheels itself.Thanks

To be honest, i feel way more comfortable and upright on my MTB (even though its not 'aero dynamic')... Thats why Im just asking for a wheelset . Thanks though !!
