FS: Hot NEW Grav Grav Wheels, Just Add Hipster

[MELSNOW]

Forgive me brothers, for I have sinned. I was baptized in the healing waters of champagne gravel and hath dranketh deeply from thine pure trendy bike industry marketing sploodge, doth bukakked upon my humble, bowed head...

Selling a new set of Easton EA70 AX wheels, with new WTB Venture tires. Takeoff hoops from a 2023 Rocky Mountain Solo C70. Never used. Set up tubeless. Listed on a few sites for $550, lower for a Mag. Here's the bukkae:

"Find the road less travelled on the new EA70 AX wheelset. Joining forces with the EA70 and EC70 AX Bar in our AX adventure road line, the new EA70 AX wheelset has the durability to withstand trail riding but is translated to drop bar applications with center lock hubs and 11-speed road and 12x100 front hub compatibility. From bikepacking adventures loaded with gear, to washboarded gravel descents with only your wheels and tires providing the compliance, we have you covered. The welded tubeless ready rim boasts a generous 24mm internal rim width that increased tire volume and gives an optimal tire profile for 35 to 50C tires. Available in 650b and 700c it’s the perfect wheelset to round out any adventure drop bar build."

Nice looking wheels. Hubs XDR, not XD, right?

[MELSNOW]

Yes, apologies if I failed to mention that. XDR hub body. Big ups to SRAM for engineering a second XD-esque hub body that is 1.8mm longer for #gains.

I'd buy an XDR over an XD any day. The simplicity of adding a 1.85 spacer is better than the reverse way of having a stupid XDR cassette not fitting on a XD hub.

Will I be able to finally grow a thick bushy mustache if I buy these? Or is the gravel mustache required prior to buying.

You obvi don't know your grav grav trends, boomer. If you purchase these brand new, incredibly ironic, pretentious pieces of bicycle drip your face will be transformed into a verdant garden of bespoke beard flowers, such as this:


Which will position you perfectly to attract and retain like minded Gen Z socialists, with whom you can galavant on grav grav subversively questioning what is in one anothers artisanal handlebar bags, such as this:


Buy the wheels already.

Ew.

[Falcon3]

I'm definitely having trouble on my own attracting Converse-wearing pigtailed socialist women that smell of Dr Bronners and patchouli. I'll need a gravel bike to attach these wheels to first though.

She looks pretty hot….I’d ride to brunch with her

What about the fork mount San peligrino bottle holder?

Sharp eye, kid. That was a test. You're ready for the mystical power of these wheels.

Final bump, $450 shipped to a Mag. I'll let this thread die after this post. Appreciate the interest.
