Siiick following, does anyone else makes tires like those XCELL RS ones?
Only meepo, but they’re not as flat as the Xcell rs. I’m riding 200x75 wheels on mine and I looooooooove it.
The 60t pulleys from Janux are $110 pulley per pair. Pretty pricy. Anyone know of a cheaper alternative?

I definitely need to get some injection molded. The price would be much lower.

The price of available MBS pulleys smaller than 72T is crazy. $20 on MBS and $44 on Newbee. It’s a piece of plastic.
Newbee’s might be aluminum.

You sure that’s not just the tire moving around? They have the small barrel dia that doesn’t properly fit anything but evolve and his tires.

The wobbles started when I had his tire on.
I’ve seen some really deformed looking beads on his tires.
Do you have a dial indicator? I’m really curious how the alu hub could be causing the wobbles, that it’s deforming or something?
I don’t have a dial indicator. I ride on really shitty roads all of the time. Aluminum rims + low-profile tires + shit roads = wobbly rims.
I’m sure the precision aluminum rims are great for the racetrack, but for everyday use, they probably aren’t the best choice.

This has also been my experience with the xcell wheels/hubs. Great at first but then progressively more wobble. Then it got to the point where id shred inner tubes. Got some nice expensive paper weights now. Wouldnt feel good selling them to anyone.

I need to make a poll for pully sizes. It will probably cost about $1500 to get a mold made, so I’ll probably just make one size to get started.

Maybe a zenit marble (I think that’s the one)
Really nice to ride
