Is this in regards to the SC Reserve warranty? That policy is not 24hrs once it arrives anywhere - you actually don't ship the wheel at all. The warranty states they'll have a new wheel coming to you thin 24 hours of their receipt of the warranty form and pics (assuming they are going to...
The Santa Cruz Wheels are lifetime. Not sure where you heard 5 years, but see this link. Lifetime. Forever. No limits. They also mention a crash replacement - unsure how often that'll be implemented or what cost would be.

$1900 for the Santa Cruz reserve with I9 hubs, and a full blown warranty, as in 24hr turn around and a new wheel, not just rim. Do I understand that correctly? Can't see how you could justify another plastic wheelset with that on the table....
That said, I am a stingy bastard and will be on my...
Was coming here to say the exact same. I had a great time on my Butcher 2.3's. On the new build I went back to Maxxis for the 2.5 axxxion.
Guess a question is how do the Spesh 2.6's measure compared to Maxxis 2.5's?
Right, but 10 years ago you may have said the same with 135/142. No one saw 148 coming, or heaven forbid 157. Are we finally getting close to the end?>!
All I know for sure is on my Banshee's since 2015 I've run 135, 142, 148, and 150 hubs, and it's been pretty rad needing a $100 kit for each...
e.g. Banshee. I like it. More parts, more weight. Most versatile. A lot of people don't like it though.....too worried about 100 grams on their 31lb bikes!
Got my first ride in on this thing. Mated to the Wolftooth Remote. Damn....smooth. No wiggle at all in the saddle like my LEVs have had. Return was super solid. You can really "feel" when the actuator is engaged, so you know when you deploy your bum on the saddle to lower it. Again, 1 ride, but...
Here I can finally contribute to this thread. Black Betty is built and first ride last night. I'll say - does not suck. In fact, I'm blown away at the cornering of this thing. Still dialing in settings/pressures/etc and just one loop at my local trail so far. Will be able to provide a mo' betta'...
Sorry if this is a tangential hijack but here are your options, whatdya do - go. For a Banshee Prime build, 135mm rear travel wagon wheeler
$250 option
A new Avalanche cart in a used Yari fork
$0 option
A used Fox 36 RC2 that probs needs a service
150mm travel for both.
I think I understand trail bike geometry ok, but geo tables for DH bikes go 100% unnoticed to me. I am such a hack.
Anyways, bike does look sick! Braaaaaaaaaaap
Brilliant - maybe I'll have a few brews prior to forking over the cost, because otherwise it sure does hurt. The product has saved me way more in tire costs, so I call it a win....#logic
What PSI do you run in your front?
Is this the right thread? Cush Core question.
I started running Cush Core on the rear last October and guys it'll blow your tits off. Zero flats. From October through present. From a guy who blew up 6 tires in 7 weeks in The Flat Times of 2017. So I am totally sold. But here's my question - run...
