Right guys need some help on what Wheelset to get for my DH bike ( its in my Sig Wink )

I was going to get Stans ZTR rims on pro 2's but have been told by a few people that a more pimp wheelset is needed Roll Eyes

Was going to get I9 but not for tthe $1300 price tag, maybe later in the year Wink

So im after the a light but strong wheelset, Preferable not one that is going to cost me ££££££'s

Pro 2s on mavic EN321/EX721, light and strong and cheap.

Enjoy.

Burgtecs are heavier, more expensive and don't seem anything better than a Pro 2 - where's the point?!

pro 2 (in my opion lightest, most reliable and resonalby priced), ztr flow (amazing rims and redicoulsly light, have been running them on the front and rear of my glory and I can say in the period I have used them are stronger then 729's) and either comps spokes or revolution for extra pimpness! you realy wont go wrong with this combination... no point in going for burgs in my opion over priced and not as reliable as pro 2's ALSO HEAVIER!!!

Hope this helps kyle

Havent found the Stans rims to be very strong for DH/FR. Seem to ding & buckle easily.

DT or Mavic Rims on Hope hubs for a budget (£300) wheel build or DT/Mavic on Acros/Burgtec/DT hubs for your £500 option.
