Just a while back I reviewed the Easton XC-Ones and gave them a great review. But that got me thinking: I wonder what their all-mountain / light free ride wheels can do? Well I made a quick call, and the nice folks at Easton provided me a test set to do my worst. Ohhh boy I love a challenge, especially when it comes to hitting trails hard (with the bike and not my body)!

Easton’s Havoc all mountain wheelset (MSRP $799.00 USD, $1220.00 CDN), are a ground up design incorporating over-sized bearings and a slick, no tool changing front hub. You can switch between a 9mm QR and 20mm through axle in seconds plus there’s even  a 15mm QR option sold separately. All these options make this wheel set a great investment since you can adapt the wheels to fit whatever bike you ride in the future.
