Narrow rim and 20mm axle makes it a bit of an odd ball these days. Do you have a 29er fork with a 20mm axle?

Ha, well spotted. That’s on the ‘no’ list then. Cheers

It's a 2018 wheel and should be convertible to 15mm using end caps, which may be supplied with the wheel. But it is a bit narrow both my road and gravel rims have a bigger ID. I think it's from the last year that Easton did MTB gear. After that, they were reorganised so that Easton did road/gravel and Raceface did MTB. The parent company of Fox owns both companies.

They had some Mavic carbons for a similar price that were definitely worth a look (I picked up a 650b rear for some mullet experimenting for £200)
