Good Disc Wheelset??

Little heavy, no deep middle channel to help change tires...but strong. Ran them on my I-drive
for 18 months (2000 plus all dirt miles) still running strong although that bike is a
backup/loaner bike now.

I am 220, that combo has been totality maintenance free; have never had them re-trued, nor broke a
spoke. For the price I don't think you can beat them. Paid $150 at Jenson USA.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good Disc compatible wheelset? I am looking at moving
to a Disc brake setup and not sure on what set to pick up. I was looking heavy at a set on
Pricepoint that had the Shimano XT hubs with the Sun Rhyno Lite rims. I am about 6' 185lbs. I do a
lot of hard pack trail riding and will take some minor obsticles (roots, rocks, etc..)if
presented. Does anyone have an opinion on this set or maybe another recommendation?? Thanks in
advance.

Both a friend and myself have been running Mavic x223 for a few years now. They're fairly light, but
can take a thrashing without a problem. Heck, we took 'em to both Crystal and Whistler.

Just be sure that your getting the FH-M756 (rear) not -755 and check for the Schrader vs. Presta
valve hole, black or silver hubs / rims, if you care.

I've spent most of my money on mountain biking and windsurfing. The rest I've just wasted.

Better check mine.....

Sounds like he wants to do casual riding. I've never had a problem, (knocking on wood) and they can
be found fairly cheap.
