Model/Year: Cobalt 3

Pros: Cobalt 3 has 4 cartridge bearings in the rear hub. Takes all axles.
UST ready to go.
2 stage skewers


Cons: Limited color schemes if you are a bling rider...not really a con. These aren't cheap.

Recommendation: CB makes great innovative products and I grabbed these to go tubeless after a flat interrupted race.
Noticeably light, spin up fast and now with a greater variety of 29er UST tires, much more dialing in available.
Not as comfy as my Spinergy 29er Xyclones, but those aren't UST either.
