WTD Disc Wheel upgrade

    Hey folks
    I would like to upgrade the stock wheels (Giant PR2). I am thinking/ looking for something slightly better than a mavic askium price range. Ideally Ksyriums or something of that caliber.
    If anyone has a set of Disc wheels they would like to sell, please let me know .
    Cheers
    Dub 24

    I’ve a set of Hunt 4 Seasons I bought on here this time last year. I’d say I did 500km on them maybe. I bought them for €250 and would let go for €200 if you were interested? Been in the attic as sold the bike they were on.

    Set up with thru axels but have the adapter for QR too.

    If Op doesn't want these. I'd be interested to run on a qr frame.

    There was a set of Krysium discs from another poster about 2 weeks ago too

    I'd be happy to take those for €200 if it doesn't work out with weepsie. With any luck you won't be able to find the QR adapters :)

    If your looking for recommendations I’d recommend Fulcrum Racing 5 DB’s. I have around 5000kms on mine and they’ve been 100%. I replaced the bearings on the front wheel after I power washed the bike last winter as it was absolutely caked in mud and Shiite and I obviously went a little too hard on the front hub and it started getting rough a week or so later but other than that they’ve been excellent, both are still 100% true despite taking plenty of hard knocks and bumps on the crappy back roads I ride during winter.

    Ah ****e. I for one hope it doesn't work out of course.

    Dub 24, if you find something fancier let me know

    the heads up on the fulcrum. I have committed to buying the Hunts from Longford 76 and am collecting this week.
