road/gravel disc wheels £100

Posted on
  • These are the stock wheels from my Arkose 4. Selling the lot because I bought some nicer wheels and skinnier tyres for winter/mudguards, but these are still true & run smooth. Novatec D791/792 6 bolt hubs (12mm front QR rear), convertible I believe (end caps pull off). Freehub has some chewing but not had any issues fitting/removing cassettes. Alexrims volar 2.1 rims (21mm internal, v easy tubeless set up), black spokes & brass nipples. 160mm avid centreline rotors, plenty of life left in them. Set up tubeless with 38c G one speeds - front is in good nick & never punctured (photo below), rear is pretty worn with a worm & a few blobs of superglue on it.

  • Photos not working for me.

  • argh thanks. hopefully attached to this post.

  • I’ll take them if they’re still available!! PM sent!

  • Assuming they’re Shimano 11 speed compatible

  • I'll take tyres if @BillyPilgrim doesn't want those...

  • Hi @Hulsroy, sorry to deprive you of the tyres, it was them that sealed the deal.

  • No worries. Totally get that. I have them in 30c and they are great

  • they are fantastic. if only they were about £20 cheaper I'd be able to justify running them for winter commuting. have you ridden the 35/38 @Hulsroy ? will probably switch back for the summer and wasn't sure how different the ride is in terms of speed vs comfort over the 30mm.

    whole lot dibs'd by @BillyPilgrim pending collection/payment

  • Thanks @charliem!
    Solid wheels and good advice.

    I’m now trying to find the front thru axle to QR end caps (bloody rare)!

    Will have to crowdsource the search...

  • You can quite easily find 12mm -> QR or 15mm -> QR converters

    It’s likely that if the end caps are actually 15mm -> 12mm converters at the moment, they’ll pull off and you’ll want to look for 15mm -> QR end caps if they do do them.

  • I have only ridden 30c but they are great

  • Thanks gents, got some Novatec endcaps rolling in from Germany 🇩🇪
