I’m about to order stuff in for my next build, and I’m wondering about using Salsa rims this time – I normally use Mavic A719’s, but need could do with something wider for this build.
The ‘Delgado Cross‘ looks pretty tempting as does the wider ‘Semi‘. Not worried by the fairly workman-like appearance, nor the ‘not for tubeless’ disclaimer, and weight isn’t super critical – I’d just like some durable, reliable rims to run 2.3 – 2.5’s on, for what I ‘spose, is what was called ‘mountain biking’ back in the day … (which is to say just ridin’ along. 😛 )
It’s a fully rigid, steel 29er of course, (with a slight twist) – I’m not heavy, nor especially hard on parts, but I’m not the most gifted / subtle rider either …
Any experiences / horror stories / glowing endorsements you’d like to share maybe?
Ta! 🙂
