You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Been meaning to buy new wheels to replace a shagged out pair of Shimano XT ones. Pretty much decided on Hope Hoops (Pro 2 with Crest rims).
Anyone found a good deal recently? Everywhere I've looked is scrotum-tighteningly expensive.

STW discount is applicable too....
Aha! Cheers Druidh.
didn't realise TBC did Hope Hoops.
Not a bad price either... What's the STW discount and how do I get it?
And any idea how long it'll take for Crest rims to be back in stock?
5% off the web price and you'd be wanting to enter the code STWTBC at the check-out. Hoops are taking 7-10 days to come through.
Free Stans kit with that too btw
Order in!
sitting here in my living room looking at my newly-delivered set of white crests on red hope pro ii evos (with black spokes), i can safely say that they rock!
get them!
Thanks for the link and discount code guys Just ordered pro 2 evos and crest rims with free stans kit for under £300 🙂
The bike outlet in york are doing rear for £160 and front for £90.
But no tubeless kit included and i prefer buying wheels from a local shop incase of any issues no need to faff around with postage.
Still a good deal for someone
Oh and plus £10.00 shipping so not much in it once you add in a stans tubeless kit !
Good for you 🙄
Some cheapies linked to here - not sure if they have Crests

Already bought mine and prices are all around the same by the time you inc any carriage and the cost of a stans tubeless kit if its not inc, thread maybe now be of a benefit to others looking for similar wheels.
Are the Crest rims rider weight limited?
Looking at a pair for a SS build and am impressed by the relative lightness - well certainly compared with the Flow/ProII combo on my Soul 😆
Pro 3 SP XC6 have a 85kg wieght limit not sure about pro2 evo/crest sets

But you only need a reel of yellow tape and a pair of valves for Stans rims - or am I wrong?
And a bottle of sealant ! An extra £20 for the Hope kit.
