Greg : WR65‘S on my Trek Madone. 32 external rims paired with Vittoria Corsa 32’s measure 32mm on the rim. I could have run 34c tires with clearance. Beautiful rim. A+

Evening! I have an old Panasonic road bike that has 27” x 1 1/4” wheels. Would any of your carbon wheels fit this bike? Thanks! -Erick 360.649.7258


LightBicycle 2021/05/28

Hi Erick, Most road wheels on the market now are 700c or 650b (27.5"). They are bigger than your old wheels. So can you find a way to measure the fork spacing for wheels? Thanks, Lightbicycle

hi, am interested in the Falcon WR65 dics wheelset. i would like the DT Swiss 350 hubs. Front need: 12X 100mm thru axle. But the Rear i need : Quick release 135mm. if I order the rear in this configuration, can I later convert this DT Swiss 350 hub to 12 X142 thru axle??


LightBicycle 2020/12/02

Hi Rick, We ran out of DT 350 hubs, will you consider Bitex hubs or other hubs instead? It's easier to get, and has a 135mm rear hub available. Thanks, Lightbicycle
