    then dont buy them. that is entirely common...frustrating? yes, but thats what you need to be prepared for. I want a Jeff Jones custom frame but I dont want to wait 2 years, therefore, i dont buy one

    I9 is a relatively new company, good bunch of guys, but not a lot of guys...they aint mavic or special ed

    I've had two sets of 29er I9s. They were fine wheels, you need to do the tensioning after a few hours of riding though. I'm a light rider and ride XC, had to pay more attention to keeping these tensioned than any wheelsets I've ever had. I've since sold both sets and am back to DTs or King hubs and Stans rims. Less maintenance all the way around. For pure look though, the I9s are hard to touch.

    No hate, just found that a wheelset that costs 1/3 as much works better for me, so I sold mine. No worries, plenty of blind faith buyers willing to buy your pretty, shiny wheels after you see the light as well. :wave:
