EA70 SL Disc Wheelset

Familiarity:

I've put it through the wringer

I got these wheels on a new bike build in 2018. * The front wheel made an audible pop at the weld and was promptly replaced under warranty. The replacement was fine. * The rear freehub always missed now and then. I replaced it at 15,600 miles which improved it some but it still wasn't perfect. * It was incredibly difficult to mount tubeless tires on these wheels, sometimes taking up to 3 hours. With a compressor, with the valve core out, ... I would not recommend these for tubeless use. * I had new wheels built with DT Swiss GR531db rims. The same brand tire seated in seconds! If the Easton wheels are cheap enough, and you use tubes, they may work for you. If you want to go tubeless and value your time at all look elsewhere.
