So I have been riding stan’s ztr arch ex wheelset (27.5″) with their new neo hub for about two months now and noticed quite a few people were interested in finding out a little bit more about stans new hub. So I put together a short overview/review for you guys.
I swapped out my stock giant sxc2 wheels on my anthem for the arch ex and immediately noticed the improvement in; acceleration,overall stiffness, and ability to hold a line. Wow, what a difference app~420grms of rotational mass makes, along with the quicker engaging hub…plus that shiny new part factor never hurts..lol. I will note that I did install these with the 142×12 end caps and converted my rear quick release over to the 12mm thru axle via giants rear dropout swap, which may have factored into the improved stiffness. Overall I am very impressed with the performance of arch ex, especially considering the price point.
