Combo is nice come packed pretty well. Requires signature on delivery made getting them an 4 days longer trying to be home to receive them. Does come with a small tool set of Alan wrenches for removing disk brakes. Myn where torx bits but I appreciate that it was included.

Great budget wheels, BUT…..the only down side is they aren’t double wall. The cassette hub is super quite I paired it up with a Shimano Deore cassette. Wheels came true out of the box with tires and tubes installed I knew they were single wall and for only $160 shipped you can’t really beat it. The bearings aren’t sealed either but again this is a BUDGET wheel set this will be a great set for a beginner (such as myself) to upgrade to so you can have more gearing options and better Groupset choices. All in all they are holding up well! The tires are very nice too. They seem a little lower grade but for the price point they are great!

I put them on a bike with a motor kit on it and they work great! Changed the whole feel of the bike.

Wheels came in a nice and sturdy box.They spin nice and true. I bought them for a gravel bike I'm building and they did the trick.

Rims are not double walled as advertised and claimed by the seller. They are alloy and seem strong. I think I'll still use them because it's still a good value and works for my build and I don't want to go through the hassle of refunding and looking for something else.Extremely disappointed in the dishonesty of the seller.EDIT: I tried to change the tube out for one with sealant in it and the tube bulged out the other side of the wheel as I was pumping it up, pinching the tube and causing me to lose sealant. The rim walls are so short and flat, keeping the tire in the rim is finicky and annoying. Between this and the false description at the time of buying, I've decided to return them. These are cheap for a reason, save your money for something better.

Great wheel and tire for those on a budget. I wanted to go from a 7 to a larger cassette. This will let you go from 8,9,10,or 11 cassette. Both front and rear are quik release and come with front and rear quik release skewers. Front and rear wheels are disk or rim brake friendly as well. Theses are single walled and are non sealed bearing.Tires have a nice grippy tread that does well with hard packed or loose dirt. Have not tried them in damp or wet conditions as of yet. Like them enough I plan to order another set for future builds.

Nice wheelset. Wheels were true out of the box. Came with Maxxis Rekons instead of the WTB’s which was nice. Front QR skewer was a little short for me.Edit: like other reviewers said they aren’t double wall. When I purchased them it said they were. But so far they’ve held up fine.
