Stoked for a mullet wheelset!!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I ride the Santa Cruz Bronson, which runs a mulleted wheelset (29" up front, 27.5" in the back). I've been wanting to upgrade my wheelset for awhile to an XD driver as well as a lighter setup, but could never justify the price point for carbon rims. I'm also an adamant rear cushcore user. I've dinged too many rear wheels to go without. I didn't realize you could order mixed wheelsets, but here they are! These weigh about the same as my husband's high-end carbon mtb wheelset, and I feel a bit more at ease if they get dinged (crossing my fingers). Easy to set up (obviously) and so far so good!
