Wheels are an area where you don’t want to skimp on a downhill bike if you want them to last. You can opt for a cheaper setup (Sun SingleTrack’s to Hope Pro II’s) if you’re looking for a setup that will last pretty good but is easy to replace should you mess them up.
For the Blindside we went for a UST option with Mavic 823′s and used Industry 9 Hub and spoke combo to finish it off. I9 can lace up to any rim of your choosing, so you’re not held to any specific rim choice. You can get a plethora of custom colors as well to make your ride a bit more special. This wheelset is absolutely stunning and performs just as well as it looks. 120pt engagement is essentially instantaneous (3 degree) and is very easy to service. If Mavic 823′s are your choice can lace up their hubs to any rim out there!
