That was when I ran the Edge (now Enve) carbon rimmed, DT Swiss hubbed wheel set I built up back in 2008. I ran those wheels on the bikes for a while but they ended up on the Fargo a time or three.
But now I don't have anything great to run on this bike, and that is mostly due to the fact that the Fargo is 135MM/100mm rear/front quick release standard. A standard barely supported by the cycling industry these days.
So, anyway, the search is on for some hubs that won't cost an arm and a leg which I can base a wheel set off of which will be the (hopefully) last wheel set I ever put on the Fargo. These wheels do not have to be carbon rims, but they also could be.
I hope to get something put together, (either by myself or ???), soon and be able to use this bike later this Summer with a really nice set of wheels on there. So, stay tuned. And by the way, if you have any suggestions for nice QR wheels, let me know.

I'm sure you can still get a DT hub, probably a 350, in a QR setup. That's probably what I'd do. Hope probably still has QR hubs too.
ReplyDeleteYou could try the Bitex BX201FG or MTF front hub along with an MTR rear: https://www.bikehubstore.com/category-s/140.htm. Both are available with QR and we have a set in current use.
ReplyDeleteUPDATE: I have a set of hubs sourced. See Wednesday's post for the reveal. You all will be surprised. I know I was!
