Classic 26
 

Our Classic 26 wheelset is just that, a classic. Light. Super strong. And good looking. No other Chris King hub has the history the Classic does so it makes for a dependable start to a great wheelset. 19.5mm constant diameter axles in both hubs make for wheels that track straight even in the lightest suspension forks and titanium frames. This wheelset is ideal for hardtails and full-suspension mountain bikes with rim brakes. Building with 32 double-butted spokes makes for a compliant ride and great strength in a nice, lightweight package. Among the best upgrades to any bike is a lightweight wheelset. Here’s one that leaves money to buy your friends pizza and beer after dropping them on that last long climb.
