Kinesis Crosslight CX Wheelset v3 Disc

Posted on
  • Well used, but in good overall nick. £100 collected

    Front wheel is in super condition and spins beautifully, just a few small marks on the rim that I've tried to show in the pics.

    Rear wheel also spins really well, but the freehub (Shimano fit) can be a bit 'draggy' - i.e. when freewheeling it sometimes 'pushes' the chain forward making it slap a bit. I think it's just one of the seals that's slightly pinched that's causing it. Wouldn't be a problem with a clutched mech, I don't think.
    Also a few small marks on the rim edge and one small scratch (pictured).

    Manufacturer's blub:
    This 3rd generation, lighter, stronger Kinesis Crosslight CXdisc wheelset is a real advance on previous versions and has a completely re-profiled rim section, with eyeletted spoke holes and pinned joint. These new wheels are 151g lighter for the front and 94g lighter at the rear, saving a total of 245g where you will really notice it.

    Kinesis have designed these wheels to work perfectly with the Crosslight Pro6 frameset and they are a great partner for the Decade Tripster fast commuter too. The 11 speed freehub is interchangeable to allow the use of Shimano or Campagnolo gearing.

    This is a true disc-specific rim profile, not a modified rim-brake section and these wheels use the same high-tension triple butted, stainless spokes and alloy nipples as our Maxlight wheels.

  • Looks like a novatec hub - you can pop the freehub off to check it by undoing the end-caps with a pair of allen keys then sliding the freehub off.

  • Interested - collection from where?

  • Kingston

  • ok - ta, I'm out - would be a faff to get over there with my current insane Xmas schedule.

  • @Brookly_Bay Could probably do a meet-up in the City if it helps.

  • Thanks for the offer but I'm going to pull out - I've seen sense (checked my bank account!).

  • Fair enough. Let me know if you change your mind!
