Going to be building up a set of lightweight XC wheels.
Got the hubs already, Shimano XT (M775) centrelock and will be built up with Dt Swiss Competition, double butted spokes.
Will be fitted with either Maxxis Crossmarx 2.1 or Continental Speed King 2.1 tyres.
Need some ideas for the rims. Been looking at...
Mavic XC717,
Dt Swiss XR 4.2D,
Dt Swiss XR 400,
No Tubes 355,
No Tubes Olympic.
I would really like a genuine UST rim, so i don't have to mess about with rims strips and stuff. But i can't find any.
Can anyone recommend me any other rims, especially UST or advise on which ones listed would be best.
Erring on the side of the Mavics, purely as i've got them on my trail/4X bike and DH bike, both are running really well, despite the large amount of abuse they've taken.
Thanks.
