Stans Flows a good replacement for Sun Singletracks?
My Suns have given years of good service and I am just a bit hesitant over finding a replacement.
I use them for everything from all-mountain to dh, including trips to Whistler bike park.
Yup +1 for the flows
Flow is a superb rim but I'd have thought you'd want something beefier for bike park work? Depends on what you do when you're there I suppose.
The flow is my do everything rim of choice. (not that I do everything, but the rim does everything I choose to do)
Anywhere cheaper than £70 each?
Wiggle are doing white for £60 [url= http://www.wiggle.co.uk/stans-no-tubes-ztr-flow-disc-mtb-rim-26-inch/ ]Flow[/url]
Yeah I saw that; white only though.
The thing is, I can buy some new Singletracks for £20 each, although I was hoping to lose a little weight.
I'm in the same boat, like the Flows they seem quite pricey. Has anybody tried the Superstar AM-490? Look pretty comparable, but £25 per rim.
I'd want to know how the Superstar rims are joined (pinned, welded, etc.) before buying - I note they don't state that.

Save yourself £100 (+ another £40 in spokes) and cut down on portion sizes.
I'd like to see the cross section of the superstar rims as well. Be great if they worked tubeless or were a straight rip off of the flow rim.

Not quite as effective as reducing rotational weight, but I get your point, although I am no lard-arse by any stretch of the imagination.
