WTB: rear wheel, 700c, 135mm wide, 9 speed compatible, rim brake, quick release

[Pancake]

Need rear wheel similar to my front wheel or a tubeless wheelset of similar size. The current front wheel is a dynamo hub with Atlas rim and DT Swiss double butted spokes. 

• 700c rim brake
• 135mm wide
• 9 speed compatible hub (to fit a Shimano HG400 cassette)
• ~25mm external width rim - wide enough for 32-44mm wide tires (currently Compass Snoqualmie Pass)

This is will be the rear wheel on my 60cm Cheviot because it's current wheel is getting swapped to my budget build for my brother-in-law. 

I'm also open to a complete wheelset that is tubeless ready. Something like Deore, LX or XT hubs; Alex Adventure, Cliffhanger, or VO Voyager rims; double butted spoks 2.0-1.8-2.0

Anyone have a rear wheel they can sell? Preferred in the SF Bay Area, I'm in Napa but can travel to you on the weekends. 

Also looking for:

44-46cm wide drop bars with 25.4mm or 26.0mm clamp size and a compatible 6-9cm extension quill stem.

Thanks for helping get this ready for my brother-in-law ahead of the holidays!

PS - thanks for help on these projects from Joe Bernard (chainrings, brake levers, canti brakes), Todd Faltin (cranksets), Maxcr (still talking about bars), and KenP (working on different brakes).

Tree fort bikes has a rear wheel for $145. Straight gauge spokes, Cliffhanger rim with a deore hub. Tension looked good, still ok after a couple hundred miles...

Thanks Kai, I think I may have been the one to refer you to that wheel originally when I was looking into tubeless with Snoqualmie tires. But I'm hoping someone on the list has something for a bit lower cost and a bit narrower rim. 

If no one on the list has a silver bullet like above hanging in their garage I'll probably get a wheel built by Universal Cycles again, something like:

Alex Adventurer 2 rims (21mm internal, 26mm external width)

Deore T610 hubs (all they have in stock, would prefer T670 / LX hubs or T780 / XT hubs) 

DT Swiss Competition spokes / nipples

32mm tubeless valves and Stans Yellow tape

That would free up my current rear wheel after swapping around with the wheels on my Hillborne, switch around a few cassettes and I'm done for about $275 and maybe less if I sell the old front wheel that would go during the tubeless swap.

But I'd rather get something with more silver and better hubs for less used ... so still looking.

Thanks for the wheel suggestion Abe! Good luck on the hunt for used, but if that doesn't work, might Treefort do a similarly priced skinnier wheel? $145 is a crazy good price for what you get.

A couple folks reached out but my temptation to try tubeless resulted in a new wheelset from UniversalCycles:

Alex Adventurer 2 rims (21mm internal, 26mm external width)

Deore T610 hubs (all they have in stock, would prefer T670 / LX hubs or T780 / XT hubs) 

DT Swiss Competition spokes / nipples

Velocity VeloTape Tubeless conversion kit $23

After some discounts and cashback madness it'll come out to about $255 for a new wheelset that will be tubeless and fit my Snoqualmie Pass tires nicely from my Sam Hillborne. 

... Sam's current rear wheel (Atlas rim, LX hub, DT butted spokes) swapped to my Cheviot. 

... Cheviot's rear wheel (Mavic A319, deore hub, straight spokes) will go to my brother-in-law's bike. 

... and I'll have a spare front wheel to sell and now that's posted to craigslist.

Thanks for the offers and help folks! This bike is coming along, just waiting on shipments of the crankset, rear wheel swap, and picking handlebars in Oakland this weekend. 

Well, I guess I'm still looking for a shorter quill stem ... 5-8cm quill stem to sell anyone?

Photos to the list when it's finished.

Hi Abe & everyone,

If there any "leftover offers" from this search of a 700c black Velocity Cliffhanger 36h (wheel or rim only), please let me know.

I did take note of the Treefort Bikes offer - it appears to still be available.

Thanks.
