My I-drive XCR4000 came with Weinman 519 rims laced to Deore hubs. I stripped the threads that hold the freehub on in the rear hub and want to buy at least a new rear wheel, maybe both. I'm pretty overwhelmed at the selection a wheelsets available and need some help finding a new one. I weigh about 200lb and ride XC I would like a wheelset that is both rim brake and disc compatable and have no need to spend mega bucks on it. Any suggestions? Where to buy? Thanks.

I just bought the Deore Disc/Sun Rhyno Lite wheels from Jenson for $89, and like them. They're not much heavier, if any, than the OEM hub/Weimnman Zac-19 I used to have, and I'm sure they're much stronger. I'm running a front disc and rear V, so that's why I went with this combo. The price can't be beat, IMO.

Just be glad they're in stock...I ordered them in late November, around the 23rd, and got them TWO MONTHS to the day later. But I could wait, what with the price. And it was worth it, they're good wheels, and seem well-built...they're not perfect, but darn near close.

Just so you know, the rims are drilled for presta tubes only...so you'd better grab some if you only have Schraders.
