I’ve decided to replace my CRW 50/60s, which I sold this week. They were fantastic wheels — super light and reliable — but I’m after a more modern, wider rear rim profile he CRWs rear if people dont know was 21mm inner and the front was 25mm.
For reference, my CRWs came in at 1282g with rim tape.
The DFS rim profile on my current 60/65s is similar to that as the XMC rims with 26mm internal, which I still like — but I really I want to give the profile of the new DC50 & DC60 CU31 models a go.
Here’s what I’ve requested for pre-order as I want the new up and coming 18/18Hole hubs:
Front: D50CU31
Rear: D60CU31
Spokes: 5mm carbon
Finish: T1100, UD paintless, no logos
Hubs: Requested with the new 18/18 Hole hubs expected at the end of the month
Oh and a set of the XMC Carbon chainrings as well!
Looking forward to the build — hoping this setup hits that sweet spot of stiffness, aero, and modern width.
I haven’t owned a set of XMC wheels before, but with all the great reviews on here, it honestly feels like a no-brainer.
Just have to be patient with Peter, as with a new baby on the way and work he is crazy busy!
