Is there any real world difference, other than 50g? They're half the price on CRC.

36 hole F/R if it makes a difference.

erm its the tyre that cuts through the mud mate...

Prob not OP, Open pros may be a bit stronger due to the profile. Last time I looked there were some DT rims at Open pro weight for open sport money.

the cxp33 profile helps to stop a build up of mud on the rim mate hence the cutting through the mud. now sit back down

I had Open Sports on my Jake the Snake and wasn't impressed with them. Replaced with Planet X A57's which are much sturdier and not too heavy

When the mud gets deep enough to go over the tyre, a deep rim stops it washing over the rim and allows you to be able to keep on steering properly.
That's the hypothesis, anyway.
