    In search of 29er rear wheel....in slc

    Just drove the final spike in the coffin of my rear wheel. Looking for something not too expensive but quality. Need 142x12mm hub and compatibility with a 10 or 11 speed shimano cassette. Tubeless compatible. Sorry if if used any wrong lingo, kind of a bike Jong. Getting better though.

    I'll be launching on a river trip tomorrow, so forgive lack of responses. I'll be taking out the 21st and coming through slc area shortly after.

    Budget you ask? I dunno. Like I said, bike Jong. I can't afford a lot and I don't need the reddest fanciest shit, but I want quality and durable.

    Whatcha got?

    Would be open to purchasing full wheel set if the price is right.

    Stans makes a good rear wheel - generally $350ish.

    If you go on merlincycles.com look at Hope Hoops 29" tech enduro rear ($270, but you need to buy the 12x142 conversion kit separate). They're a bit cheaper and come with Hope pro 4 hubs, which are basically Chris King on a budget.

    Neither of these rear wheels are cheap, but you can spend a lot more and get something not much better, and spend a lot less and get something much worse.

    ymmv.
