Matt wanted to upgrade his current Mavic wheels to something with more performance and lower weight. He originally wanted the ZTR Olympic rims but after a couple of emails we concluded that the Crest would be a better choice. The Crest is a very versatile rim and has great durability for such a light weight rim.

The Stan’s hubs with a QR15 front axle are nice and light and great value.

The spokes for this wheelset are black DT Swiss Competition. I used brass nipples on the rear driveside and aluminium everywhere else. Nipple colour alternates between red and black.
