So, it seems [urlare venturing into the rim market[/url] now, shall be very interested to see what others make of them once they're 'out there'. Quite a fan of the Stans/Hope combination, so the question will be will I continue to buy off the shelf hope hoops in the future or build some myself… time will tell I guess.

Stans rims are made by Sun

Thought it was that Sun had licensed the Stan's rim profile?

Rims are made specifacally for hope by the people who make xtr rims, look really good tubeless compatable and two sizes, am and xc. Stem is 35mm long and looks pretty good. 42 cr is still a prototype and could well drop to 40 to make it work properly but it looks good. Nw chainring in 32,4 6 and there will be a 30. All looking good from hope.

As I understand it both are true- Sun make the Stans rims and licence the bst for their own wheels
