Goodbadugly Posted May 17, 2012 Share Why are all the stock standard 29ers all coming out with heavy wheels (other than the momsens)Maybe they do not like comebacks. So they spec them with good solid wheels. Now if you get yourself a set of weenie wheels and stuff them up, it's your problem.The thing is that bikes are assembled with machine built wheels. They have to error to the heavier side to get the wheels to hold up. If you get a good builder, you will get a stronger light wheel. But not many people are prepared to pay for professional wheel builders.As mentioned on another thread, many bikes come without a weight limit. Bike companies will be troubled by 160kg riders employing lawyers because their Race gold wheels folded under them while they were just riding along.
