Are Crests burly enough for 15 stone or so of burliness? Or are Arches a more sensible option (75 g heavier)?

thanks

XC, DH? Crashing lots or never?

I'm 11st and went for Arch rims over Crest. 75g is a pretty small penalty for a rim that is significantly tougher. I use them for all my riding now, I had a set of wheels with Flows and a set with Olympic rims before.

They aren't quite as wide as the Crests but that isn't a problem. I'm running 2.2 Rubber Queens on them and they are nice and voluminous.
