As above. Available online fairly cheap..... why...?
For my DH bike
Because the sponsored DH cool kids have switched to the lighter EX rated enduro rims.
The FR's are heavier but tougher, a better bet if you pay for your own kit.

Which is why I've got EX471 with 350 hubs on my Nomad.
That said, it's not a DH bike. I just wanted tough enough for uplift days, but not too heavy.
Tougher is good. Ta.
Good strong well made rim. I had one on my trail bike. Too heavy for that but ideal for DH bike. Should be resistant to dings and went tubeless fine.
thanks yes i have an ex 471 on the enduro gnarsled.
fr 570 is 38 euros so big difference in price!
I've just noticed they a Schrader valve. I've always used presta tubeless.... how does that work then?
I have the rims, got them for piece of mind toughness and they use 'normal' spokes and nipples.
The rim is supplied with a removable insert for a presta valve so it doesn't wobble about.
Use my rims with procore successfully!
ok ta!
