[RBW] Re: WTB: 650b rim brake wheelset
I have a set. Mavic MR601 hubs with Mavic skewers laced to Velocity Dyads. They are 130 spaced and currently have a 9 speed SRAM cassette which is included. $350 + $50ish for shipping.

I had a set built on Shimano 105 hubs and Velocity rims at Universal cycles for $417, including shipping. I've been happy with them and I run 38 mm Pari Motos.

For what it's worth, I've been happy with my Crust 650b wheelset. I've been commuting on it daily and going on fire roads once in a while for about 400ish miles? This is on Soma Cazadero 50mm tires set up tubeless. I did have to bust out the spoke key to true the rear wheel already. For the rear spacing, I just let the quick release squeeze in the frame. Shrug, Sheldon Brown said it would be okay? :) On Friday, September 30, 2022 at 11:35:26 PM UTC-7 Joe Bernard wrote: > You got me curious about the Crust wheels because I'm wishing now that I'd > built my custom with a dynohub, so took a look.

You got me curious about the Crust wheels because I'm wishing now that I'd built my custom with a dynohub, so took a look. Note that the rear spacing is 130, my custom and most Rivs use 135. I don't know what frame you're building up so thought you should be aware of this.
