For the price of the 240s I would just get a King. Purdy colors...no they are fairly light but the engagements are great and oh how I love the airplane sound.
The 240s is nice with the upgraded 36pt star ratchets. I don't get why that hub does not come with them.
but what he can't do, is get my 240's for the price of a king... haha, the upgrade for the 36pts came out shortly after I got my wheelset. at first I was bumbed, but haven't cared to upgrade them...
I don't remember the exact cost but I believe just the short cage for the X0 is around $120. X9 is like $80. So ill see because those prices are pretty ridiculous for just a d cage
I agree with you 100% but the brake, shifter, derailleur and cassette were all free so I cant complain. Actually I can complain because Elixirs absolutely blow. But next up is a 240S for the rear and MAYBE XTR cranks, just because they make any bike that they touch look so f*cking ballin.
Look at the DT wheelsets you can get from Norco before you get the 240. They have soem pretty sick sets for only a couple bucks more than a hub.
I'm going to get the M1600 I think. 340 hub with 10mm thru axle should be set!
Ok I will thanks. What's your reason for going 340 over 240? What's the difference even? I just saw that the 240 is lighter so, being a weight dick, i just assumed I should go for the 240 haha
Haha yeah the 240 is damn light. Only reason I'm going for the wheel with the 340 hub only because of price. This one retails for $550 for the rear where as the wheel running the 240 is the EX1750 and it retails for like $900. Also I think the EX1750 has been discontinued so not sure what it's replacement will be.
Although the EX wheelset looks way better so I might just forget about the $$ and buy solely on looks/weight. That's the smart way to buy right?
It was what I was going to do but then I cheaped out.
