Hand-Built: Those wheels are built by hand and the spokes are fully extended by pushing machine. So the spokes will not be extended anymore after a few rides. This step is very important to make sure the wheels are always true.Rim: WTB SX19 Disc Brake Rim 29",Spokes: 32, Material: Stainless SteelFront Hubs: Novatec Hub D041SB-15, 32H x 14G, Alloy Disc J-Hook, 2 Sealed bearing, M15 x 100mm, P.C.D 58mm, Offset 3.26mm, Rear Hub: Novatec Hub D162SB-SL-X12, 32H x 14G, Alloy Disc J-Hook, 2 Sealed bearing, M12 x 142mm, P.C.D 58mm, Offset 3.26mm, 5 Pawls, Steel Cassette Body, Shimano or Sram 9 10 11 Speed MTB cassette compatibleTire: Continental X-King MTB Wire Tire 29" x 2.2

Noisy bearings, poor quality
The price is great but I’m not sure about the quality. The rear wheel doesn’t spin well right out of the box and has a grinding sound in the bearings. The front spins “ok” but not as well as the stock wheels that came with the bike. I’ll put a few miles on them to see if they improve but I’m unimpressed so far.Update 2 months later... the freehub failed while I was riding in the Rocky Mountain National Park. Don’t buy these wheels.
