In the market for a new set of wheels, what I want: High quality build Good Warranty Good Hubs 55|50 or so Less than 1300g 23-25 Internal about 31.5 external Less than $4K So far the Black Inc 48|58 are the only ones that get close, I can find. Could the community help me find other options?

Seems like this is just a matter of money and the issue is solved. [image] Syncros Capital SL Aero on test Minimal weight and optimised aerodynamics? The Syncros Capital SL Aero wheelset impresses across the board, but can it beat the competition in our group test? Est. reading…

Hey @jsiegrist ! I just wanted to say thanks for all the feedback you gave me the other day! I can ask Nextie about your question. My gut tells me that you might want to stick with a 24-spoke option, but the new spoke could be valuable. The biggest turnoff I had with the NXTS03 was the silver titan…

That nextie set looks nice!! custom build is the way to go with requirements like this. I have build a 50mm / 23mm wide (internal) set that weighs 1360 grams… (around 1000 euro) With some more budget, you can get sub 1300 very easy.

[image] nvalphen: for the MTB I have Duke rims and hubs, also very nice road stuff I believe that Dylan Johnson just named Duke as his wheel sponsor for 2025. I’m about 80% sure that’s the name of them.

More details of the mtb set I have build [image] Wheel Building - Advice, Tips, etc Equipment already over 1 year in use, but still very happy with this set: DUKE Lucky Jack SLS3 6TERS 30/28mm ( https://www.duke-racingwh…y-jack-sls-6ters/?lang=en ) DUKE MADMAX SP HUBS ( DUK…

Update - 2/17/2025 The first QC rims came out this weekend at 450g!!! This is great news, however the QC on the hubs came out to 280g which is heavier than anticipated. The Nextie engineering team thinks there is still some meat on the rims and is going to try and QC a little lighter rim and let …

Nextie is now looking for name suggestions for this wheelset. I figured I would throw it on the forum and get recommendations, maybe even a poll, maybe a new thread? This wheel process will potentially be applied to rim depths 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60? TRS Aero - (Trainer Road Special) Echappee se…

Cross Vector Pro off your list…Garmin uses “Vector” for their pedals and they would likely send you a letter politely asking you to change the name. :wink:

Those spokes look so cool. I bet these wheels sound sweet too. [image] teddygram: Nextie is now looking for name suggestions for this wheelset. I figured I would throw it on the forum and get recommendations, maybe even a poll, maybe a new thread? This wheel process will potentially be applie…
