WTB gravel/CX wheelset, tubeless, QR

Posted on
  • As the title really; looking for a fairly inexpensive set of wheels suitable for light-moderate gravel, 700c, disc (ideally CL). Must be tubeless ready and have the necessary adapters for QR (100/130).

    Cheers!

  • I’ve got these. Not a 100% match (6 bolt and will need front converter, available from SJS for the official novatec one or eBay/Amazon for a knock off)

    Novatec hubs, 11s shimano road freehub but others available from novotec

    Taped for tubeless, no valves but could come with some wtb cx tyres if you’re interested?

  • So these would be the adapters? https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/hub-spares/novatec-front-side-caps-qr/

    And I take it it would also be a case of getting hold of 2 shimano 6 bolt to CL adapters?

    Have you been running them tubeless?

    Ta.

  • Yup, think those are the ones! Can double check the hub name for you. Other option is this: https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/hub-spares/problem-solvers-thruaxle-qr-adapter-12-mm-to-qr/

    Not sure you can get 6 bolt to cl adapters (cl had a smaller diameter mount) though. It is possible to go from CL or six bolt.

    Yes they’ve been run tubeless, but not for a bit of time. We’re all ok when last used and held air just fine

  • Yeah I think you're right actually.

    Ok, so really I'm budgeting £50-60 on top for rotors and adapters, so I guess it depends how much you want for them. Happy for you to PM if preferred.

  • Novatec d771/772, DT swiss r460 rims, set up tubeless with Nano 40c tyres in decent condition. QR f and r. 32 holes. Handbuilt by me. Freehub/bearings recently replaced.

    £90/pair plus postage (roughly £10)
