Anyone got any experience? Been looking at these on a traibike/xc build.Wanting some thing strong but light (yeah right!) My other choice is Stans Arch EX.Wanting something stiffer than my current Crests.It's on a 29er if that's a help.
Thanx,
Max

Just got some of them on Superstar Tesla for £260 but bike isn't built yet. Big thread on MTBR, nearly all positive. What MTB had a line saying they've been riding a set for a year and haven't had to touch them. Same weight as Arch EX and width as Flows, I'm hoping they're going to live up to the hype!

I love mine. We are speccing them on the El Guapo 29 and Fireline Evo bikes we're doing later in the year.

Just bought some. Seem pretty light out of the box, quite wide, will tell you longevity in a year's time. Plus for me is that they are eyeletted

Sounds good.Don't mind wide rims but nearer Flows mite be to wide.I think the Crests are wide and wouldn't wanna go much bigger.Decisions,decisions!

Interesting, might have to try these. Light bike carbon ones look good also.

I've had one on the front of my big bike for nearly a year, has done Torridon, Alps, Dh races, enduros etc etc, no hiccups at all. Smashed the rear one on Skye, must have had a slow puncture and hit a water bar with a little too little air. Just dented it though but sent it back as I thought it was a little poor for a new rim that JRA said would be fine for that kind of riding.

I recommend them and JRA for service.
