I ride on en321's at the mo, but want to get some stans to save some weight. The flow's are my first choice but the arch look good. I ride a chameleon and I tend to hit thing a bit hard. Can I save some weight and go with the arch, or should I go with the flow's.
I wanted the weight of my 317s with the tyre profile I get from my 321s. I fitted the flow and still reckon I made the right choice. The arch is lighter but it's narrower. Aluminium is lighter than rubber. I run the flow with a Maxxis ADvantage 2.1 on my pace and it gives a lovely profile and weighs less and is stronger than an arch with a 2.3" tyre.
good point
have a look at the dt swiss range,i know you hear the negative comments but lots of people (pros included) ride them with no problem, stans are good but ££££££££
dt's are made of cheese. Well the light ones are.
You could always try running an Arch on the front and a Flow on the back.
I went from en321 to dt ex1750 wheelset for same reason and have no problems with the rims and im sure they are same as 5.1D rims
