Not road. I have a set of Nextie carbon rims, 27.5 X 65mm for my fatbike. Bitex XD hubs laced withg Sapim D-Lyte spokes. They roll great and are under 2,000 grams which is half the weight of the wheels that came on my bike. I've owned them for almost 2 years now and have done nothing but ride them. Still true as can be!

A Cologne based wheel builder (Laufradtuning) has recommended a set of Nextie based wheels. Price/quality is very good, I payed around 1200 Euro with DT-Swiss 350 for Tubeless Ready 35mm Road wheels. I had no trouble fitting 28'' Conti 5000 TLR.

My experience has been that Nextie customer service is outstandingly good, and the product is also very good.

FYI 65ARX (rounded V for rear) and 60ARX (U for front) will be available soon. 60 will be 32.9mm wide external and 24.9mm internal front, 65 will be 32mm wide external and 24mm wide internal.

Ended up getting the NXT40GX rims. Weight is 400/402g.
Wheels will be built next week by my LBS with DT Swiss 240 Hubs and Sapim CX-Ray spokes.

Thinking about getting the NXT29WML35 for my MTB for 2.25 barzo + mezcal combo. Anyone got experience with this rim? 30 internal for 325gr seems good!

I noticed you can know also purchase them with hubs, so not just rims. Anyone got experience with the total wheel building quality of nextie?

Curious about hub and weight. I assume it's for 30c tires mostly.

Sounds like a good wheel for meeting the 'rule of 105' with a 28mm tyre. What model tyres are you planning to run?

Extralite HyperSmart3 hubs. I'll likely run 32mm Veloflex Corsa Evos to begin with.

Whether I'll ever receive them is another matter. Nextie took it upon themselves, unbidden, to write the value down by a factor of 10x, and unknown to me. When I provided the obviously real invoice to customs this caused problems. So stupid. Probably they think they're 'helping'.
