I’m stuck between deciding on Factory Arch Ex or Crest on Hope Pro 2s. I’m 6″1 and 90kg which is about 10 pounds over the Crest’s limit.
I’ve got 29er ZTR rapides (which are just OEM crests with eyelets).
I’m 100kg and not afraid of some airtime, and they’re on a rigid bike, so take some stick too. No issues with them, but then I won’t complain if/when they fold either, I’m well over the weight limit and try not to hang about.
I’ve also go Arch-EX rims, likewise they’re good. Probably quite a bit stiffer, but it’s oddly not been that noticeable, I notice flex in changing forks more than I do the wheels. they are noticeably heavier to accelerate though, but they’re still light enough not to care.
