keith Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 Hey guys I've got 2008 WTB Laserdisc XC wheels with Maxxis Crossmark tyres (ghetto tubeless). Is this considered lightweight? I'm getting conflicting states on the web. Was just wondering for upgrading purposes. Thanks!keith2009-06-03 00:36:09
bd54 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Not sure about the wheels but most Tubless tyres are heavy & you would save weight by using just the normal fold up tyres.Try find tyres that have a side wall protection like conti & kenda do.
knersis Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Think the 2008 WTB wheels without tyres and skewers are about 1.75kgWould be semi lightweight IMO.Lightweight I reckon is around 1.5kgMedium weight Wheels (for XC) over 2kg.knersis2009-06-05 03:55:52
bd54 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Ya anything under 1.5kg a good race wheel , anything over is good for training.
