    A friend of mine used to say “The wider the undercarriage, the better they ride”. Not sure if he was talking about bikes.

    Vermont is my home and with more unpaved roads than paved, the wide are the easy choice. Thank you for providing great entertainment and substance. My favorite line you have is “tell me about your bike.”

    The 25mm of the AX wheel set would be perfect to finally be able to run 50mm tires! :))

    Minnesota, where I already have wide wheels for our chunky farm roads, but could use a narrower set for mounting up tubeless cyclocross tires (for whenever racing comes back).

    Dedicated Dirt Dog checking in from Washington state. Currently running some 30mm internal width 650b wheels. Really widens out those larger tires for plenty of cushion in the chunky stuff. Think those EA90ax would be a great option for this eastern Washington gravel!

    If you were opting to use your gravel ride as a some time commuter, what width slicks? 35 or 40? Heading back to the office sooner than later and figure dual purpose for now, just an extra set of wheels. Easton EC 70AX for gravel EA 70AX for the commuter.

Times have been tough. Never had a set of good wheels and I love your work so it would be really cool to tell the story and cherish them until I get to shred some ramble gramble.

    VA, a.k.a. the 2up2down, and would love the EA90s (25mm). I've got a 700c 19mm set already. The 25mm would slot in perfect between those and my 650B wheelset for when the ramblin' gets grambly but no so grambly that I want the 650B fatties (2.2") on there.

    Hi Dustin, I live in Northern Michigan and i have a titanium gravel bike (Bearclaw). I currently run a narrow wheel set for road miles away from my tri bike. As I venture out into the more dirt roads for the shoulder season and those pesky automobile people, I need to run a wider set for the reasons you have outlined. I am interested in the AX disc. I ran Easton Wheels when I was a collegiate racer and loved them. Cheers. Look forward to hearing from you.

    176lbs with a Finna Landscape frame with American Classic wheels with 23mm internal width. Clearance up to 29x2.2 rear (pushing it) & up to 29x3 front (easy). I've ridden 28mm road tires on the road, 40mm wtb nano front and rear (34psi) on bumpy fire roads (I don't recommend nanos for the front, unless you ride on a straight line forever), 2.2 (29psi) inches rear and 2.6 front (22psi) descending gnarly trails the speed of a turtle. When you have avid bb7 brakes the limit are your brakes and the rigid fork, not the wheels or the tires.
