Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Carbon Tubeless Road disc wheelset recommendations?
« on: June 29, 2020, 08:30:35 AM »
Howdy; I usually deal with Bert @ XMIPlay, but he hasn't been responding to my emails. I have two wheelsets through XMIPlay and they have been flawless. Hoping someone see this or can point me in the direction to build a wheelset with the following:

25mm wide, tubeless preferred
38mm deep
12x142 rear
12x100 front TA
okay hubs (bitex/novatec), 6 bolt
Sapim CX-Rays spokes

Disc will be a new world to me, but is it reasonable to find a 1400-1500g wheelset for around $500 or so?

If you have built anything or have a link to what you bought, that would be helpful as well!

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Anyone have experience with Fastace hubs?

Working with Peter and Bert, they are looking to use the RA618 Fastace Hubs, but can’t find any info on them anywhere. Anyone use these? I’d feel more comfortable with something i could research or hear reviews on!

Component Deals & Selection / Origin8 slipping... Afraid to tighten more.

I've done some searching and it seems that everyone loves this EBB (hence why I got it) but man, I can't get it to not slip. Does everyone still love this EBB? Am I just being a wuss tightening it? I don't have a torque wrench sadly.

I randomly find myself looking on the main carbon frame supplier pages; how new is this? I did some research but couldn't find anything. Anyone know what this is a copy of? With the bb92, it looks like a specialized? The geo looks like a Scalpel.

Does anyone make a frame that has the stranglehold dropouts that Trek offers or the system that Giant offers on the XTC?
