I live Velomine and have used them several times in the past, but boy, their website sucks. I'd much rather have some modern filters for diameter, hub size, disc, etc, rather than their random grouping of wheels by category. Eric On Mon, Oct 21, 2024 at 6:48 AM Matt C. wrote: > FYI, a few years

I think the difference is that VeloMine mirrors the QBP inventory so you can actually see what's available, and they don't seem to mark the wheels up much. A buddy got an amazing deal on a set of Velocitys a while ago - cheaper than the retail cost of the parts. I don't know how they are able to

FYI, a few years ago I ordered a frame from VeloMine and had to call for some reason, but during that call I had asked about their wheelsets and was told they are just the stock wheels that QBP sells. They just purchase mass amounts of them and sell them. So any bike shop with a QBP account can

I've had great experiences with Velomine. Over the years I've ordered three wheelsets from them. While not up to the level of Rich-built Riv wheels, they have great deals and the wheels have always been solidly built and durable. Eric On Sunday, October 20, 2024 at 4:53:38 PM UTC-4 Garrett K w

Thanks for the heads up. Crust 650b: $525 for a wheelset or $625 (dynamo), Taiwan built. Riv's Taiwan version is sold out, but built by Rich version would be $590 with Deore hubs and Cliffhangers, 4-6 week wait. I've ran one of those Deore t610 rear hubs for many years on my old cargo bike and

Oh. That's impressive. I didn't actually look at the numbers or profiles - I just read the email that said they got wider. Hard to balk at that deal. On Saturday, October 19, 2024 at 3:42:06 PM UTC-6 ian m wrote: > As much as I think the need to maximize rim width for wider tires is > mostl

As much as I think the need to maximize rim width for wider tires is mostly overblown, for what it's worth: Crust rims are 30mm external width, 26mm internal Velocity Cliffhangers are 30mm external, 25mm internal On Saturday, October 19, 2024 at 3:08:32 PM UTC-4 iamkeith wrote: > Crust just sent

Crust just sent out a restock email on those wheels yesterday. Evidently, the rims are wider than the previous version, so they might actually work on a Susie, depending on what tires you intend to run. If you want to take full advantage of the clearance, you probably still want Cliffhangers,
