Built a set of wheels for my Schwinn Axum. I used Koozer hubs, WTB i29 rims with DT Swiss spokes and nipples. The wheels take about 2 lbs off the bike’s weight compared to the stock wheels. I went tubeless with Conti tires.

Spoke Tension Meter Tool: amzn.to/2XptbEh
Spoke Wrench (for DT Swiss nipples): amzn.to/2VQ5kwX
