This.
For my most recent bike I bought a 26” wheelset with CK hubs, WTB rims, with good tyres, cassette and rotors, off eBay for £210, from someone ‘upgrading’ to 29”.

I'm with you on this one, fuck Velocity, the Halo's are nice
Dartmoor Shield rims are also great value

All I'll say is remember you already have a homer. If you commission a marge frame and stick a bunch of homer parts on it you'll end up with another homer.

Halos for certain. This bicycle is a prototype for a new kind of future. If MAJ wanted to build a woods cyclery wallet inspector build she would have just got a couple of credit cards and called them up.

glad to see we're here for the all hands
sips coffee and flicks the google teams on in meeting room 5
so we were supposed to be entering a wheel sprint this week and now we're started we've discovered some issues we did not factor in, while we're speaking to the relevant people in dev about that we need to be agile.
bang eminates from the speaker as launchpadbois mountain of archival john paul gaultier falls onto their simworks handlebars
we could spend on consultancy to get something off ebay yes, we could also contract out to one of the dev houses to find some rims, this all puts us in a classic "riaz tweet" bind however.
if we're going to pivot this in the useful direction i need some links to the rims, which are less that 415 grams a rim, that i can buy in relatively good condition. i also need a shop who is going to build them with nice spokes for less than £100 all in, sbc is almost double that and finance is already having me lay off the the sticker consultancy i hired.
we can push back the brake product discovery into next month to make room for this extra work but it might require some overtime if we're still going to go live this quarter.
a rustle is heard amongst the awkward silence for people to realise there is something moving in barenecessities framebag, he quickly exscuses himself to peoples disbelief
in the mean time i have contacted our supplier to see if we can possibly make some ammendments to the proposal, and we'll wait for them to reply. we all know how these guys are tho, things don't move fast down in somerset
We'll reconvine when we have more time
we're disturbed by samrensho running in breathless, it's "dick ma'am, he's put another classified ad up.... it's.......it's not relevant to any of your projects but you'll want to admire the prices anyway.. "
alright ladies, get out of here, you have work to be avoiding

Did anyone suggest mavic xc717 already? 395g, takes 2.1” maybe 2.3” tyres & although they predate tubeless it apparently mostly works (says “the internet”) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145115990748

Those Stans rims will look infinitely better if you desticker them

rim stickers are the least of my problems, they have black spokes
