![]() By specialized6790 on 3/3/2007 hey i hope this isn't a re-post, but i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for some strong DH/FR wheels, i would sacrifice weight for strength any day, so don't use weight as a deciding factor, but any input would be much appreciated, thx in advance |

Which wheels? |
cory scott says:
It depends on what kind of price range you are looking at. If you don't want to spend a lot I have heard some good things about LOCOS that performance bike sells. They have a QR or a 20 mm thru axle conversion for a couple hundred bucks. If you want to spend more there are so many, like Mavic and Magura, you can get just about anything to fit your needs. |

Sorry made a typo and the site isn't letting me edit. The wheels are LOCOS not lobos. |
specialized6790 says:
thx for the reply, ill check out the locos, my spending limit is pretty low, forgot to mention that, so mavic is pretty much out of the question |

http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/WH406A05-Dt+Champion+Fr2350+Wheel... These are some sick wheels, i have a friend who has them and he loves them, great for downhill and freeriding, and a fairly light wheel for what you can get out of it. |

if money is no object go for the industry 9's. they cost but there worth it |
Wes Barber says:
If you dont have a big budget, S-types are nice for the price. For a little bit more you can get the MTX's which are a stronger version of the S-types. |

Get some Hope hubs, built onto a decent mavic rim like a 719 disc rim. |
