In buying components at incredible sales over the winter, I have ended up with 3 brand new sets of Rohloff (rear) / Chris King (front) - Stans Flow 29er disc wheelsets; I shall use one of them myself. As many of you know, I build wheels recreationally to support my own cycling habit and out of love for the actual process with about 1300 wheels built in 10 years.

Per usual, I am happy to just pass them along to a forum member at my actual cost.

If you would like them as non-disc compatible, I could relace the wheelset using DT Swiss TK540 29er rims with machined sidewalls.

Need those on the MootoX frame in the background. What a rocking bike that would be!

Thanks, James. I think that both sets have sold, although I am awaiting payment.

GGW, I am running the MootoX with the Rohloff, and I could not be more pleased.

Not surprised these sold so fast. I don't have a bicycle even close to capable of handling these wheels (bikes?! offroad?! :confused: ) and was moving funds around to buy them anyhow.

Besides the obvious parts quality, this is one great looking wheelset. You guys have to be very excited to ride these!

I am open to just selling the Rohloff / Rear wheel setup, if you do not need the King front wheel. I turned down that offer a week ago, but I just want this last one to find a new home...

Bump for the question... Do you have any wheels left?

I have a silver Rohloff (setup with a disc rotor) laced to a 700c Salsa Delgado machined rim so I can run it on any bike I choose.

It's an amazing hub that I plan to incorporate into my next hardtail mountain bike!

I'm curious what a setup like this weighs? With all the other stuff you don't need when running these hubs, what's the net weight impact on the bike? I'd like to build a hardtail 29r with these .....

Thank you! That's more than I would have guessed.

2.78 lbs over XTR is pretty minimal overall, but you have to look at the change in weight distribution also. I do not regret a single one of my Rohloff hubs in terms of durability, ability to run in absolutely horrible conditions, and simplicity.
