The Easton EA70 AX Disc 650b Adventure Wheels allow riders to find the road less traveled. 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 washboard 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)

Bought this wheelset to replace the wheels that came stock on my Gravel Bike and I could not be happier! I got the 650b Wheel Set and with the great price, it is a bargain. The wheels roll great, I have 42mm 650b tires on them and ride a good mix of gravel, single track and road with them, handling is great - you have to run the tubeless to really get the full experience.
They are a fantastic deal. I got the XDR hub as I use SRAM and new centerlock SRAM rotors (you have to purchase a Shimano lock ring (as I found out) as the Easton Hub will only work with Shimano lock ring - it works just fine with the SRAM Centerlock rotors).
Couldn't be happier with wheel set and highly recommend.
Bought these on sale to replace the wheels that came with my gravel bike and I'm extremely happy with them. The hub is smooth, the wheels are strong (have taken them on some good gravel and single track) and they are much lighter than the wheels that came with my gravel bike.
I'm a big fan of Easton Wheels, I have them on my road bike as well, they are a quality wheelset and at the sale price and excellent value for 650b wheels!!!
I have them set up with SRAM 160mm Rotors, 11 speed 10-42 cassette and they rock on my gravel bike.
I bought the rear only as I have a perfectly good, old Magic front
The price was unbeatable. , almost 250$ with discount and points
The wheel itself is really good for my commuter. It is not the lightest or the greatest, but it is solid and serviceable, and I cannot find a better wheel at something even close to this price
