Warp 9 wheels to convert X to R

Just wanted to let all you guys know, the warp 9 wheel set works great. I'm able to swap wheelsets quickly since the warp 9 wheels come with sprocket and rotor. They may need a little dishing to get alignment perfect but they are pretty good.

I've got a set out in the garage, haven't installed them yet though. Whattya mean you have to dish them?

I'd be shocked if warp9 didn't dish them correctly. They have a pretty good reputation. Only complaints I've seen about them is that the anodizing isn't always a perfect match between wheels and rarely matches the bike right. That's to be expected though with anodizing. If you want uniformity build your own with powder coated rims.

What's the source for Warp 9? How much they run?

Thanks!

Buy direct from their website. It's about $800 and includes rotors and sprocket. You can't beat the pricing unless you do it yourself.

That's a great deal. Thanks! Gonna turn my X into the R it deserves to be (at least for the riding I do).

i really need to save up the cash! i already contacted them and they were very helpfull and responded fast! just need the money

Order way before you need them........ It's been FOUR weeks waiting for my rear.

They said 2 weeks because they were jammed up with work. I called yesterday, they said it'd ship today........ Nothing was taken out of my charge card......

This will be the second group ride I'll miss this weekend.

They gave the runaround with the front too.

How long does it take a Pro to put one wheel together???


Unless they toss a pile of free stuff in the box this is the LAST time I deal with them.

It's a shame too, I love their wheels

Got a call today...... Sounds like they want to make things right in the way of up-grades.




Wonder if they read the interwebz

Any comments on these vs. Wheeling Cycle Supply?

The Warp 9 wheels certainly seem a LOT cheaper, since Wheeling, once it's all added up, is in the $1100 range with sprocket and rotors.

I just got mine from Warp 9. Beautiful wheels and came in much cheaper than Wheeling. I guess I was fortunate too in that they only took about 2 weeks to deliver.

Today I received my 21" X wheel from Warp 9, really quick service, 5 days. I'm keeping the 17" rear with the Shinko 244 on it.
I really didn't have a problem with the front 17" wheel with a Shinko 244 on it, just wanted to try the 21".
I installed the wheel today with a Dunlop 606 and the front end is so much lighter. The only problem is the sidestand is
shorter. Here are a few pictures.

There is a seller on Ebay that has several sets of these for sale. Would have got these but I ended up getting a set from Wheeling Cycle.

I see you have the harbor freight tire stand and and the Mojo bar, I have those too (actually a friend who lives in an appartment stores this rig in my garage - good deal for me!) We also upgraded the 3 wheel attachments points on the stand, uses similar white material as the Mojo bar (but more grip) - works great, no scratches.

I'm picking up my Wheeling wheels tomorrow morning on my way back home.
I didn't know about Warp 9 when I ordered the wheels (front & back.)
