Tag Wheels, our newest partner sent us a set of the FRX5 Disc Only Wheels.

We first met Mike Thomas of Tag Wheels at Sea Otter and I immediately fell in love with the idea of a virtually maintenance free wheel that are more durable then any wire wheelsets out there. Besides Tag Wheels brought back some nice memories of my old BMX wheels when I was a kid.

Here’s the specs:

Tire Size 1.95″ to 2.5″
Max. Tire Pressure 45 PSI
Rim Tape Included
Color Flat Black
Tube Only Yes
Valve Type Schrader
Valve Hole Dia. 8mm
Decals FRX5 / DT SwissComplete Wheel Weights

Complete wheel weights include composite wheel and hub without QR, thru axle, thru bolt.
WHEELSET FRONT REAR
110mm / 20mm thru, 135mm / 12mm thru Grams = 1828 g
Ounces = 64 oz
Pounds = 4.0 lbs Grams = 1928 g

Even the pros use Tag Wheels. Check out the Magura Flow Show from Sea Otter.

    Sorry man, they don’t make 26″ mags and Tag wheels went out of business.

    Hi
    Mag wheels for Mountain Bikes are available on eBay, someone from the United Kingdom is shipping them Worldwide. They’re made of alloy and are available in several colours.

    I got a pair of them, quick delivery, 300 miles later their still going great. Good prices as well, 6 spoke design.

    I have a pair of black 3 spoke mags, there heavy but in the last year I have road over 1000 miles and to this day there still in perfect condition, couple scratches, no buckles. Only downfall I have had to change the rivets in the back wheel, although still cheaper than a new standard wheel to fix.
