I'm looking into upgrading the wheels on my 29er HT. Really like the idea of Stan's Crest 29er rims, but am wondering about their strength in the larger diameter (I'm about 90Kg/200lbs in full riding kit). I noticed that the Stan's factory wheelset comes with a recommended max rider weight of 190lbs.
Are there any riders of a similar weight who have experience of the Crest 29ers? if so, could you let me know how you've found 'em please.
p.s. FWIW, I'm a wheels on the ground type rider these days - bar the odd manual/mini hop over puddles;). Do ride in the Dark Peak a fair bit, but with the HT I'm fairly steady through the rougher rock bits.
