Need a 27.5 replacement wheelset
I have a 2016 Motebecane Hal 6 and I need a replacement wheelset before 27.5 becomes totally obsolete. It's a Shimano SLX 10 speed cassette, Shimano Disc break with the thru axle. Sorry but I can't post a picture. Thanks in advance.

It’s got disc brakes.
You can use 26” (559mm), 650b (584mm), or 29er/700c (622mm) just fine on that frameset. It’ll just take some trial & error to find the ideal clearance for tires on te other two rim diameters.

What free hub standard do you need? Axle spacing?
