Levo Gen 2 Recommend 27.5 wheel for a mullet

[chrismechmaster]

Does anyone have any recommendation for a single 27.5 wheel to mullet my Levo

is it best to match the brand to the front eg roval or can anyone recommend one please ?

I just ordered a DT Swiss E 1900 Spline 27,5" / 30mm for EURO 169,-. I read it was stock on a 2018 YT Capra, so I guess its strong enough for the Levo...

Can't go wrong with Hope hubs and beefy rim (not Hope Fortus).

How come not hope fortus ?? Was thinking 35 mm

Also curious about this... i heard fortus 30 is better than the 35 as the 30 is for e-bike.

But yeah, same question...Whats wrong with hope rims?

They had a reputation for being a bit soft.

oh really, that is odd being as its advertised as an ebike rim so handling the extra weight etc (fortus 30)

what else would you recommend that isn't going to break the bank?

I thought the 35 would be stronger ??

its not an e-bike rim. Only the 30 is so being as the 30 is ebike = strongest

I bought a sun ringle 27.5 wheel from decathlon for £60 it has a 40mm rim and it’s been great. Can’t really fault it for the price.

Did the same 4 months ago. 36mm internal rim size. Very happy so far. Won’t go back to 29er.
