Figure out the groupsets first. SRAM = XD, anything else = HG

[volan]

I'm very interested in buying a set of wheels from Peter for a new build.
Looking at the 50mm 26iw 33ow rim.

However, I am unsure which free body I should order. The HG or XD.
I have not yet bought a group set for the build. I might go SRAM AXS or maybe just Ltwoo R9 (non electronic).

Could anyone provide some guidance?

Thanks!

I believe you can ask Peter for spare freehub for cheap price probably. So order HG and ask for XD as well. I wanted to but decided to go with shimano so didn't need to.

Have anyone got rim brake version of wheels and can share the opinion?

That website lists the tire compatibility for the 26mm internal wheel

5, Compatible for 700*23C-43C tire (tubeless ready)

 What does ETRTO know anyways im gonna go ahead and setup 23c tubeless

Actually that is a mistake by my colleague Allen when he listed the products, he copied the spec. but didn't revise the information for different widths rims/wheels.

On these 26mm inner width rims, we suggest 28C minimum.

Thanks! I took your advice and ended up ordering a Shimano 105 11-speed groupset.

Now I’m a bit confused thought since there seem to be HG bodies and HG road bodies?
Is that so? Will the HG body from Peter work for 11-speed Shimano?

I feel I’ve biked long enough to know this stuff but oh well

Ordered mine and can't wait for them! It's been said million times, but Peter was incredibly helpful and patient with all my annoying questions

Guys, since these will be my first carbon rim build, I wonder if the nipple washers still a thing here, cause DTswiss (rims I mostly build my mtb wheels on) do recommend nip washers. I asked Peter and he was pretty clear: nowdays they are rarely used. So what are your recommendations, or practice/experience? thanks in advance!

I would go with what Peter says. I'll be ordering a wheelset this week/next week. Just working out the last details. Years ago I ordered some stuff with him and he was very helpfull in the proces. I think I'd trust him on the wheels/no-washers (I also don't see them anymore on other hi-end carbon wheels, and I did have them on my last Alu MTB and race wheelsets),

I sure don't mind couple of grams less on my wheels. 

My wheelset and xc rims are still in transit. Landed in EU today. Should be arriving next week. The only bad part about chinese oem parts is... the wait game. Waiting on my vb268 for a month now

Peter send me a photo of my wheelset
Lighter than expected!
