It has more than likely been posted here, but I need instant satisfaction rather than going through all 150 pages 

 

So hopefully someone has a good memory and can point me to correct page where it was discussed :-)

 

I am looking for 50mm deep section rims only that has the newer U - shape.

 

the ones that look more like the Zipp rims rather than the sharper profile. Which china company have them that you guys would recommend to buy from?

Like this?

Hongfu does not seem to have the U-shape is what I meant. I can only find the V shape there

 

Thanks Ryan that is the correct one

Let me know if you're pulling the trigger.

 

I'm considering a set of 24mm rims. Perhaps we can combine a shipment?

I'm also keen on a pair, so if you do decide to go for it let me know.  (likewise for the light-bicycle option)...

This looks like them, they look more like zipp rims than the "normal" ones

 

Will let you know if I am going that way

If you shop on Aliexpress and type 25mm U-Shape carbon wheels into the search bar, hundreds of options come up.

I know, but I don't want to buy from them....I want to buy from a supplier that someone here has dealt with already and is trusted.

Cool

Does anybody know if Flyxii is the only shop with Free Shipping, or is there others out there?

Finally started building my dual 650B bike last night and almost done. Only cables and brakes left. Had to rush some parts so the brake hoses are going to be blue and white So far she really looks good, although the headset bearings at the top just look shite. Will upload some pics later this afternoon

My Hongfu wheels were built to spec with extras as I requested.

Would love to buy from them but they don't seem to have the U-shape rims I want
