Is that a WAO?
What have you broken on your bike recently?
- Thread starter rideit
- Start date
Definitely not. A Reserve maybe?
is dis, methinks: https://project321.com/
The ride was decent, but the bike performance was bad. More to come on that.
I ended with it on my trail bike too. I tried a newmen xa25 for a while but with 28 spokes I needed to retension it too often... it might have been better with 32 spokes? Not sure...
i trashed my newmen wheelset in not even a week. those things are soft af
Which rim was it?
Newmen seems to have different types of alloy for their rims. I have been very positively surprised by how dent resistant these 400g evolution sl xa25 are. The non sl are made of a softer alloy
a30 sl, dinged the rear rim so hard it didn't hold air anymore. front wheel lost 2 spokes during my week in paganella
no problems with my race face turbine v2 so far. liked the sound (or the lack off) of the newmen though

Running those on my trail bike. Bloody awesome
If you can't get warranty on your RM frame, maybe stick to the same rim just in case you do something silly again.
Running dodgy wheels like a fuseable link designed to fail before the frame. Genius.
Got em on my Titan and have already been running em on my Reign. Thought XM would be sufficient for the Element. Was wrong.
Welp, 2nd time this WT Resolve post has gotten saggy. It was having trouble extending last ride and I thought it was just cuz it was cold. Planned to do a service, which I just did....but still 25mm of saggy play. Back to WT. Supposedly these are "self bleeding"...but I feel if it had the BY Revive valve it would fix it.
