[RBW] Re: WTB: rear wheel, 700c, 135mm wide, 9 speed compatible, rim brake, quick release

[MAP]

Hi Abe & everyone,

If there any "leftover offers" from this search of a 700c black Velocity 
Cliffhanger 36h (wheel or rim only), please let me know.
I did take note of the Treefort Bikes offer - it appears to still be 
available.

Thanks.

[RBW] Re: WTB: rear wheel, 700c, 135mm wide, 9 speed compatible, rim brake, quick release

[Pancake]

A couple folks reached out but my temptation to try tubeless resulted in a 
new wheelset from UniversalCycles:
Alex Adventurer 2 

 rims 
(21mm internal, 26mm external width)
Deore T610 hubs (all they have in stock, would prefer T670 / LX hubs or 
T780 / XT hubs) 
DT Swiss Competition spokes / nipples
Velocity VeloTape Tubeless conversion kit $23
*After some discounts and cashback madness it'll come out to about $255 for 
a new wheelset that will be tubeless and fit my Snoqualmie Pass tires 
nicely *from my Sam Hillborne. 
... Sam's current rear wheel (Atlas rim, LX hub, DT butted spokes) swapped 
to my Cheviot. 
... Cheviot's rear wheel (Mavic A319, deore hub, straight spokes) will go 
to my brother-in-law's bike. 
... and I'll have a spare front wheel to sell and now that's posted to 
craigslist.

Thanks for the offers and help folks! This bike is coming along, just 
waiting on shipments of the crankset, rear wheel swap, and picking 
handlebars in Oakland this weekend. 

*Well, I guess I'm still looking for a shorter quill stem ... 5-8cm quill 
stem to sell anyone?*

Photos to the list when it's finished.

[Kainalu V. -Brooklyn NY]

Thanks for the wheel suggestion Abe! Good luck on the hunt for used, but if 
that doesn't work, might Treefort do a similarly priced skinnier wheel? $145 is 
a crazy good price for what you get.

Thanks Kai, I think I may have been the one to refer you to that wheel 
originally when I was looking into tubeless with Snoqualmie tires. But I'm 
hoping someone on the list has something for a bit lower cost and a bit 
narrower rim. 

If no one on the list has a silver bullet like above hanging in their 
garage I'll probably get a wheel built by Universal Cycles again, something 
like:
Alex Adventurer 2 

 
rims (21mm internal, 26mm external width)
Deore T610 hubs (all they have in stock, would prefer T670 / LX hubs or 
T780 / XT hubs) 
DT Swiss Competition spokes / nipples
32mm tubeless valves and Stans Yellow tape
That would free up my current rear wheel after swapping around with the 
wheels on my Hillborne, switch around a few cassettes and I'm done for 
about $275 and maybe less if I sell the old front wheel that would go 
during the tubeless swap.

But I'd rather get something with more silver and better hubs for less used 
... so still looking.
