Hey!

I´m doing research for good 4x / all mountain wheels with 20 mm thru-axle compability and I´ve read about wheels built by a company called Industry Nine. I just checked out their website and I´m in love!

www.industrynine.net

At the moment, they offer 3 wheelsets... The all mountains come with a DT Swiss 4.1 rim and weigh 730 grams front / 930 grams rear complete. Enduro / 4x come with the Dt swiss 5.1 d rim and weigh 845/995 grams complete, including a 20 mm front hub. And the FR/DH wheelset comes with the DT swiss 6.1d rim and weigh 1045 gram (front) / 1210 gram (rear).

The look is just amazing. You can get them in every colour you want... Black rims and for example anodized red hubs and spokes. They look so awesome, I´m in love.

You can also build them up with every rim you want to.

And performance? Decline writes: "It was the bright red anodized colour of the Industry Nine spokes laced to their black hubs. This was our first experience using them and we were blown away with the instantaneus engagement..."

So it seems that they perform really well, and are light at the same time.

I want those wheels! Their wheels also have tons of options... just check it out on their website.

Has anybody ridden them? Any feedback?

Definitely check out their website, industrynine.net.

Personally, I'd rather have wheels build from King, Hadley or
DT Swiss hubs. Good track record, and parts are available.

Just my $0.02,
Dave

well now that king has raised their prices anything is looking that much more appealing than it might have.

plus these are supposed to be very stiff.
