32's are the staple wheelset for pretty much all fun mountain biking. Strong, not too heavy for the price, and look good as well. You will spend almost triple to get anything better. I've had a set of 28's too, they're good, but not much lighter than 32's.
Such a great wheel.. I only have a 36 on the rear (the older model with the all the stickers between the spokes) but I really want to get a 32 up front. The 36 is a bit heavy but it's been through hell and back without much to show for it 
I strongly recommend this product!!

They just kick ass, for the price i doubt you'll find a tougher wheelset. and they look dope too. Mine have taken hits that have flatspotted rims of the same price (ie sunn MTX s-types) and are still rolling pretty much perfectly straight. Check them out you most definetly will not be dissapointed.

this product is strong, sexy, and overal performs amazing i highly recomend this bar for most bikes. Transition has spent loads of time figuring out the best shape, weigh, size and everything for the maxium results. This product is definately worth the cost because you will run into no problems, and if you do transition will fix them very fast because they are such an amazing company
They work, they stay true, and you don't have to think about them. They just work. One issue - the cassette starts to create an indent on the hub splines. This could, however, be an issue with the cheap cassettes I use (grad school eats my bike part money).
Ok so this wheel set is amazing i have ridden it for two seasons now and it has only gotten trued once it took a week at whistler and a week in sunpeaks last summer plus numerous days of trail riding at home. Right now there are about 3 spokes missing in my back wheel and it is still almost 100% true. By far the strongest most affordable wheel set on the market
They shipped to my house a few hundred miles away in less than a day with only standard shipping (saving my trip to whistler). whistler was their first test about 3 months ago and since then i have only tensioned them once. they are really strong, not noticeably heavier than my old bontrager big earl wheels, are a great price, and i know first hand that they guys backing these products are good guys
LUSH

Bought the 32's and have abused them for a year now. They are still holding up fine and have lots of life left in them. They aren't the lightest but they are durable and inexpensive.
I was riding these wheels since 2 years and no play on the rims. I'm not exactly slim but these wheels are a good choice for a alot of sort of riding. Closed eyes choice for me !
Nobody needs the 36, but the revolution 32 is awesome for the price. Although heavy, these wheels are very solid, roll fast, and take impacts well.
Ran the 32 hole, blue hub version for a while. Tough wheelset for freeride and DH. The price/value is great and they look awesome!
These are really great. You won't regret getting them, they're money well spent. They handle well and i have yet to have an issue.
buy these if your looking for any type of wheels DOIT its an awsome wheel and doesent beak easly, and also looks super rad on any bike .
Super affordable in a tuff package. They look great on my TR. But what else would you expect from Transition.
transition makes high quality rims and if you put them on your transition frame, its nearly bulletproof
im planning on getting them in the near future.. i've heard everything great about them! hopefully they pay off!

Revolution 32 & 36 Wheelsets
At Transition Bikes we know how freeriders go through wheelsets, that is why we are introducing the Revolution Wheelset. Designed with strength in mind and value.

Available in 32mm wide 32 hole option as well as our burly 36mm wide 36 hole set. The fronts are sealed 20mm through axle and the rears are 135mm spacing with a solid 10mm quick release axle that locks your wheel down.
26" front and rear wheels
32mm width rim with 32 hole option or 36mm width rim with 36 hole option
14g stainless steel black spokes
Sealed Cartridge Bearings (2 front, 4 rear)
