Description The Easton EA70 AX Disc 700c Adventure Wheels allow riders to find the road less travelled. Joining forces with the EA70 and EC70 AX Bar in Easton's AX adventure road line, the new EA70 AX wheelset has the durability to withstand trail riding but is translated to drop bar applications with center lock hubs and 11-speed road and 12x100 thru axle front hub compatibility. From bikepacking adventures loaded with gear, to washboarded gravel descents with only what the wheels and tires can provide for compliance, Easton's got it covered. The welded tubeless ready rim boasts a generous 24mm internal rim width that increased tire volume and gives an optimal tire profile for 35 to 50C tires. Convertible to quick release and 15 mm thru axle with after market kits. (Requires axle and end caps to be replaced)

Good value overall but had some quality issues.

Internal sealing tape on front rim was peeling off at the end. Tape was reattached without issue.
The front wheel started making a rattling noise. It turned out to be a spoke nipple that was left inside the front rim. Had to take apart the tubeless tire, clean out sealant, and extract the nipple from valve stem hole.
After fixing these quality spill issues, the wheels turned out to be great. Setting up the tubeless tires on these wheels was easy. Cassette (xD) and disc installation presented no problems. These wheels proved to be light, roll very well, and seem strong enough for heavy rider such as myself.

Superb second set of wheels for a 'road' experience for my gravel bike.

Picked these up, with same cassette and disc rotors for an easy swap from gravel knobbies (Carbon version of this wheel) to street when I need to commute into the office. Easy swap, great product, nice price.

I bought this to replace a set of Oval Concept wheels that keep breaking spokes. So far these wheels handle all the groads I throw at them.

Solid wheelset

Solid everyday wheels. Accelerate fast and feel pretty stiff.
