Warp 9 Tubeless Wheels - Thoughts and Pictures

[ohioyj]

I asked about the tubeless Warp 9 wheels a while back and there wasn't much on them. I finally decided to order a set, so I figured I'd post up what I've noticed so far. It was about 6 weeks to get them.

I weighed these and my current Warp 9 wheels:

Front:
Traditional: 21.3 lbs
Tubeless: 22.3 lbs

Rear:
Traditional: 27.0 lbs
Tubeless: 27.7 lbs

My methodology for this wasn't very scientific, and just using the a bathroom scale isn't the most accurate. However either way, I don't think these are going to shave weight off the bike. They are getting rid of the tubes which will be nice. I'd bet some of the weight difference is in the brake rotor, the newer one definitely looks more substantial (a good thing).





These wheels would support the factory speedometer sensor if you need that.



If you use a Trail Tech (or anything else that use a magnet) I would order the magnet Warp 9 sells at the same time you order the wheels (It's currently $10).

I'll get better pictures here soon, I'm still working on it, and waiting for some parts. Supersprox only makes a 38 tooth in gold for the KTM bolt pattern (and yes these still use the KTM bolt pattern).



Don't mind the mess in the garage, it was getting late:

Definitely changes the look of the bike:
