This pair of 1534 gram wheels are for Gary’s new Yeti ASR which I’ll be building next week.  The ASR is a 5″ long-travel cross country / All-Mountain frame and needed a pair of wheels which were light enough for XC use but strong enough for a bit of abuse.

The rims are the new Stans Crest – an updated version of the ZTR 355 with the newer sidewall shape.  I laced them to the excellent Stan’s hubs with DT Swiss Competition double butted spokes and a combination of aluminium and brass spokes nipples.

The front hub uses a 20mm thru axle for the Rockshox Revelation forks.  The rear is a standard 135mm quick release.

Please note that the photos of the wheel weights include the tubeless rim tape and valves.
