Here's my set of flows on pro 2 hubs on 3 different bikes:


I've had them about 2 years now and they're still in good nick. Yes they have quite a lot of chips and stuff but any bike that's ridden will. From a distance you still get the pimped out look fo sho.

Presonally I think that any clour other than black just looks wrong. Too much stickerage also looks wrong and can make the wheel look wonky.

haha, only a troll Ian:wink:
if you have a white frame go for it - other wise the fashion police will get you!

as I thought... though that singular looks nice, it would still probably look better with black (or even better, polished alu!)

white wheels are heavier. FACT.
(may only be true for stans rims, but it is still a FACT).

looks familiar that GEOFF1!

White seatpost didn't last too long.... 1 bit of white too far.
And with black rims for comparison....

captaindanger thanks for starting this thread - i'm thinking of some white xc rims too. I've always been anti white - black rims, spokes and hubs on all bikes. But some of the white rims on this thread don't look too bad i think white forks help
Does white clean up ok post winter ride or does it lose its super whiteness?

I always hated white rims. And look at me now.

Not a very good picture I'm afraid.

Wasn't sure about the white rims, but the black versions were hideous. Looks ok I think.

Bit of a spam but I might also know of some for sale. Synchros DS28 on Formula hubs. Front is a 15mm axle and the rear is 12x135. They have been taken off a mate's Saracen Ariel for no reason other than he wanted black ones :roll:. Email me if interested.

I was a bit unsure about these:

as the bike had always had all-black parts but they looked OK.
Weird angle on that shot by the way, frame seems to look smaller than it actually is...Posted 4 months ago # -
Phew. Building my Scandal with white rims this weekend and seeing these it will look great I reckon...

White rims never fail to make any bike look cheap.
