Morning,
I am thinking of upgrading my wheels on my Orange RX9 to these
http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/70038/Reynolds_Stratus_Elite_Disc_Shimano_2014_Wheelset
Anyone know if they will fit. The rear QR is 135 (MTB) standard.
Cheers
Steve
Wheels look like standard 135mm QR hubs so should work
do you know how heavy your wheels are at the moment? 2090g is not an amazing upgrade.
I would suggest not a whole lot more than the Reynolds. My cheap Saracen OE wheels weighed 2200g with Araya rims and formula hubs. Shimano 475 hubs are heavy but I doubt any worse.
I wouldn't spend money on those Reynolds and doubt the OP would lose any meaningful weight (probably lose more spending £15 on a pair of lightweight inner tubes).
Ah right. Not a great wheelset then. Got some old Hope Wheels at home (26) I could just get those re-laced to 700c rims then.
