• Damn. I like that very much. If/when my space chicken bites the dust ive got the replacement lined up, it looks like a really viable "jack of all trades" bike with 2 sets of wheels.

  • bike with 2 sets of wheels.

    Have anyone actually done this? The only one I know is a customers with a MOOTS having 700 x 32 and 700x 40

  • Eh? I run 700C road wheels and 650B gravel wheels in the Tripster and my missus runs 700C road wheels and either 650B gravel or 700C gravel wheels in her Sequoia.

    I thought multiple wheelsets was a pretty normal thing to do.
    See also: training and racing wheels.

    Or do you mean a manufacturer supplying two sets of wheels WITH the bike? In which case, no, never heard of that, but we're bike nerds, we can buy our own second wheelset.

  • I had two wheel sets - offroad one with 27.5 x 2.2" and road one with 700 x 32c.

    Would swap to the road one when I wanted to get some base miles and do some road riding but eventually ended up selling it as I've got a major fear of being run over by a motorist and I don't ride road too much.

  • yeah, though I went with 29x2.00 for off road and 650x47 for audax, just to be contrary

  • I have 27,5 x 3.25 and 28 x 2.6 for my stooge.
    Even changed them once.

  • Have done. 650b with 48s and 700c with 35-40mm.

    Gave the bike very different feel and with the same hub in both rear wheels I never had to do any adjustment between wheelsets.

  • But jokes aside, the only things stopping me from doing this are that my gravel bike is 1x only, and Im still invested in rim-brake wheelsets for road/TT.
