  • I'm in the market for some new wheels. Its mainly for the road and occasional tracks and trails so i run 38s. Braking surfaces required too. Fixed and free, just in case.

    I had thought tb14 with Surly hubs....your thoughts and suggestions welcome.

  • Surly because you need wider spacing? Otherwise I'd go for novatec or whatever with sealed replaceable bearings, and some cheap (de-stickered) mavic rims. 32 spokes minimum. If you're not fussed about looks, the tb14 are going to look shit in no time anyway ;)

  • I'd go sealed track hubs (zenith have been good for me) and wider road rims. Typically I'd suggest xr22 for higher spoke counts or XR31 if you want to go lower however I've just picked up my DCR 24/25 build which look to be the perfect middle ground and a smidge lighter/better finished.

    FWIW I had TB14 on DA hubs and the my Kinlin/Zenith were/are much nicer to ride on. Hoping the DCR's are as good!
