Hiya,
I'm in the market for a new pair of shows for my Giant Anthem X4 29er and I can't decide which is the better wheelset.
Choices are :-
Superstar Sentinel tubeless ready rims with Tesla EVO hubs
or
Hope Hoops Pro 2 Evo Arch EX

Both sets are in my price range and I don't need heavy duty wheels as I'm more of an XC rider.
Any ideas or experience with either wheelset?

Caz xxx

I'm a Superstar fan (never had any problem), but given your two choices..... Hope.

+1 for hope, but if I were you I'd be looking at the crest rather than the arch ex.

How different are the prices? Superstar do some good options at prices Hope can't reach, otherwise, Hope.

I had one SS wheelset and have 4 hope sets, the SS ones went in the bin when I left the UK I still have the first year ProII's built up.

Because their stuff constantly falls to bits and they get plenty of practise.

I'd go for XT or DT Swiss.

To be fair PP Superstar should have plenty of practice too... I must be the exception (along with lot's I know) who have never had to use the Hope Support, those who have get on well.

The DT's look good but going to Cup and Cone my be a step too far backwards.
