WTB kit is around here in the UK but the wheelsets are pretty damn rare, infact they are not available aftermarket so I am really struggling to get any info on these.
Looks like I am going to end up with a fully built Sunday Team and swap bits around to my personal preferences rather than the custom route which I really can't afford right now.
The wheels are a bit of an unknown quantity, I know nothing about the WTB Laserdisc DH wheelset that comes on it. I can either run with them or sell them on and go with a pair of handbuilt Mavic/DT rims on hubs of my choice.......Saint, Aireal, Hope, DT etc. Because I work in the trade I can probably do this for relatively little extra but because I know so little about these WTB wheels I dont know whether it is worth my while? Are they good? Bad? Average? Strong? Weak? Well sealed? A death trap?
