TAS 27.5 boost wheelset

[Lucaw]

Item: 27.5 boost wheelset
Location: Hobart preferably, but can post
Price range/Willing to Pay: depends on the wheels
Extra Info: I bought a frame and fork combo so I need wheels
I'm happy to get some cheap wheels to get me going and upgrade when I break them, I would also be interested to possibly loan a set of wheels to get me rolling.

Will also consider wheels from interstate if they are in good condition and a good deal.
Microspline hubs are ok too

Can the rear hub on these be converted to 142x12?

Can the rear hub on these be converted to 142x12?

Usually the flanges and disc mount are different between non boost and boost. Or in other words, non boost to boost = yes with adaptors. But boost to non boost = no

I'd wondered if it was all about the spacers.

Personally, I'd avoid 28 spoke and SP spokes. I've got these in 26' (but the higher model 'pro') and broken a few spokes. Have only ever broken one J bend, and that was caused by a stick.

Have had, wouldn't recommend for anything more than general trail riding. Taco'ed the front (though as a disclaimer, I was riding rather large jumps and wall rides at the time).

$241 for this in boost XD driver is a heck of a deal: https://www.wiggle.com.au/spank-350-boost-xd-rear-wheel

How easy is it to convert to hg or microspline?

Given Spank Hex drive, would need to buy a new freehub which can be pricey, so you'd be better off getting an XD cassette

I've got a set of E13 TRS boost alloy wheels (32h 30mm wide) with novatec hubs and XD driver if you're interested. Located in SE QLD, but I can ship them down to you if you're keen

This is the Shiz. Mad if he doesn’t. Another $250 might pair that to a matching rear FTW.
