Stan’s ZTR Crest S1 650b Wheelset: Durable Performance at an Accessible Price
Elevate your trail riding with this pre-owned Stan’s ZTR Crest S1 wheelset—a trusted choice for mountain bikers seeking strength and precision without compromising on value. Engineered for aggressive terrain, these wheels combine rugged durability with modern features like SRAM XDR freehub compatibility and tubeless-ready rims, making them ideal for technical trails or all-day epics where reliability matters most.
Key Features & Benefits:
– Versatile Hub System: Equipped with 100x12mm front and 142x12mm rear thru-axles, these hubs deliver secure engagement while supporting 6-bolt rotors for consistent braking power on demanding descents.
– Optimized Rims: Crafted from lightweight alloy, the 23mm internal/26.5mm external rims boost tire stability and traction—perfect for pairing with wider tires (up to 2.6″) on loose or rocky surfaces.
– SRAM XDR Readiness: Eliminate chain drops and simplify gear upgrades with this advanced freehub design, favored by riders prioritizing smooth power transfer over long miles.
Technical Precision:
– Build Quality: J-bend spokes paired with 32h drilling ensure robust strength against impacts, while precise lacing maintains wheel integrity during high-speed maneuvers.
– Weight & Balance: At 1676g total (pair), these wheels strike an optimal balance between stiffness and agility—ideal for climbing without sacrificing control on descents.
Condition & Value:
This set shows moderate wear consistent with regular trail use: minor cosmetic scratches on hubs/rims and a small dent on the rear rim (true when spun). Bearings remain smooth, and tubeless compatibility is intact—making this an excellent option for riders seeking proven performance at a fraction of new prices.
