Julius Czar Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 Hey, recently bought a specialized Tricross sport disk for a bit of road riding, as the mountain bike feels too weighty for rolling around the streets on. I Picked up an Orange RX9 frameset and used all the specialized bits to build it, only thing is the wheels are a bit past it, and I fancy something a bit wider/more versatile so I’m not restricted to just paths and roads. Any pointers? This side of bikes is very foreign to me and I haven’t got a clue what’s good or not. Im after a decent set of wheels that don’t cost the earth, need to be disk compatible and fit 135x10 and 110x10 with QR axles. Any help would be great. Thanks!

grant wildman Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Halo wheels have good offering in the gravel genre: Halo Gravel wheel sets Also the Mavic Aksium disc wheel set is about the best budget wheel set going. Rims aren't that wide but suitable for a 38c/40mm tyre no problem. Wide rims are only as good as the frame clearance you have. First off invest in some decent tubeless gravel tyres. Schwalbe G-one all round is a good starting place. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
