Hi,

Looking for a 20mm bolt through 29er wheel set and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations?

I have seen the superstar wheels which sound good but was wondering if anyone had any experience of either the switch hubs or the superstar rims?

They also currently have a deal on Superstar hubs matched to Stans Crest 29er rims, again any feedback?

What would the Singletrack collective recommend?

Do hope hoops do a 29er wheel set?

Already got a set in 26 inch flavour with flow rims which have been excellent.

Not sure if it's the same on all their wheels but the "Superstar" rims are in fact Alex rims. Nothing wrong with that though as I've had two wheelsets with Alex rims and they've been very reliable.

Flows on Hopes are pretty close to perfect. Crests are lightweight rims for racer boys

I bought a singlespeed set in march, SS hubs on stans flows 29er rims, build and performance is solid, no discernible differences with the hope pro\flows wheelset I have been riding for the past 2 years (bearings were shot after 1 and a half yrs).

Can't comment on durability yet, but considering the price difference I'll be satisfied if they last me 12 months.
