Subject: RE: Easton 90slx Wheel setMy husband rides Easton EA90 SLX's on his road bike...and he noticed a big difference from his stock wheels. One caveat, however...he ended up having to replace his 105 cassette with a DA cassette, because for some reason the 90 SLX would not work with his existing 105. Also...he just recently (as in, last week ) broke a spoke (he is 170lbs ) on his rear wheel and is having quite a difficult time finding a replacement. Took the wheel in to our LBS, and they had to call up Easton directly to order the spoke from them (I guess it's proprietary ) and they also needed Easton's help with removing the hub because the LBS could not figure out how to get it off. The LBS also said that this was the first time they had ever seen an Easton wheel break. But other than that, my husband loved the 90 SLX's, and can hardly wait to get 'em back on his bike. |
