I've been considering getting a second pair of wheels for my ebike so I can have more of a street tire setup ready to go. These look like a great option! Thanks for this!
I just purchased a Vitus Rapide VR from Chainreactioncycles for $1400 plus shipping and they come spec'd with these wheels. Are these adequate wheels for a bike at that price point in your view?
Bike is designed for 29 inch wheels when I built the bike I simply purchased 27.5 wheels. I rode with those for a while and then purchased 29 inch wheels.

these also have a steel spline body, where my 27.5 were aluminum and couldn't hold up to the power.

Thats a pretty good price for name brand wheels and tires. Nice find 👍

The link doesn’t work anymore
Any recommendations on road wheels from Amazon?
Can you jump bikes with this wtb rims?
That's not tubeless tape
Do these wheels/tires actually fit your ebike frame?
yes why wouldn't they?
@@gravitycheckmtb If stock frame is meant for 27.5" wheels, might not have enough tires clearance for 29" wheels with wide tires.

frame is designed for both 27.5 and 29. With 27.5 max tire size is 3 inch, with 29 max tire is 2.6 inch.
