    Basically any 28H rim will work, if you importing then maybe Chain reaction has something in their Nukeproof range?

    The important number to look for is the ERD if you are wanting to keep your spokes and nipples. The ERD will basically give you the diameter of the rim at the point where the nipples rest on. ±2mm should be fine and you can keep the same spoke length.

    Thanks, will have a chat to the guys at chain reaction cycles as well

    There were a couple Spank 28H rims brought in by the agents a couple weeks back, your LBS should be able to help you out. Other DT Swiss are likely the only ones you might find in stock.

    Most rims are an issue at the moment with stock, 28H just makes it worse

    I’m based in Kenya, so will need to ship from Europe or US - Spank don’t have any in stock at the moment either. Will only be able to get in the next 60 days.

    I can’t wait 60 days, so will look for a similar rim to the Spank’s 28 hole, with a inner width of 35mm

    any alternative suggestions?

  3. naa, just doing things under ride conditions. also looking at "testing" a garmin etrex to see how it performs, in terms of following a route, sweaty fingers etc.

     

    S2c wil be the only official "race" I will do before december

    Slowbee, recently got the Etrex 30 x, great piece of kit. No touch screen, so don't need to worry about using with gloves. Just trying to find a bike mount for it.  

  4. Need some advice... A friend and I are looking at doing some long distance bikepacking and we both looking at getting some solid hard tails (don't want to hurt the Pyga to much). We won't be carrying a massive load, just dry bags, small tent, etc will be strapped to the frame. If you went with a on one, which frame would you use?
