[#1627573]

Am looking at some new wheels for my hardtail. Was considering hope hoops with crest rims ( if they are out soon) although am also considering mavics. I weigh an awesome 66kg so bullet proof rims are not a must , I do however like running massive tyres on as lower pressure as I can get away with, currently NN 2.4s, so a wider rim would be ideal. So I guess I'm after a light but wide(ish) rim but the more I look the more confusing the rims become.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

edit- was also considering en521s for their width but not sure if they would just be too heavy

EN521s are tough. Like, I ride with very little grace and they're still alright tough.

I'd go for something as wide but lighter.

Yup, hang on for the Crests, but don't expect a discount.
