So I have a NS Fuzz 2, 2016 model. I want to get a new wheelset, and I'm curious as to if the rear wheel sizing. The cassette is a 157mm on the rear stock wheel of the NS(which I have on currently) and I was looking at the hope dh wheelset. Would the 150x12mm be able to fit?? or would I need a conversion kit?
I honestly wouldn't buy the hope wheelset. I have not long bought them and the rims are made of cheese. Hubs are fantastic tho.
If that's the case, any Dh wheelset brands you'd recommend? Or would building my own wheels be cheaper
am not saying there the best but I had dt swiss fr1950 on my last bike and had no problems at all so am thinking about building my hope hubs into them but would also like to here some more suggestions.
You’d have a hard time finding better wheels than Industry Nine. J-bend or their bombproof system spokes. They also make 157mm hubshells so you will get the correct size without the need of spacers or conversion endcaps.

on point. You can custom build all kinds of wheels to your spec (hubs - rims) through many reputable sources, or you can just get I9 and be done. If you have the money for a really good wheelset, the performance, weight, durability, and customization of I9 are second to none.
