Iwan Kemp Posted October 25, 2013 Author Posted October 25, 2013 suppose ENVE's are out the equation, with neon yellow decals if available? Was considered. Too scared to pick up the phone and get a quote. YUMEYA and (Deon) 2
Iwan Kemp Posted October 25, 2013 Author Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) It's going to be a "trust me on this one" kinda thing... The inspiration for that:http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p4pb9524851/p4pb9524851.jpg Edited October 25, 2013 by The Crow Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and Hairy 2
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 XC / Enduro rated. XC for their weight, Enduro for their strength and width.http://www.pinkbike....-Wide-Rims.html Considered Spank Oozy, I9, Mavic Enduro, AMC All Mountain like I had on the SL-R or complete custom. Wheels will be the last piece of the puzzle that falls into place. Still have until next week Thu to change my mind 37.3 times per day! Sweet... Lok forward to seeing them! But yeah, it's a great philosophy. Really logical.
Iwan Kemp Posted October 25, 2013 Author Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) Wheelset:..AM Classic Wide Lightning Interesting choice given that they're an "XC" rim according to AC, but I like the rim itself... 32mm wide. 28mm internal... will suit those HD's very nicely.Also considered these from evobikes.co.zahttp://www.evobikes....b-wheelset.html http://novatecusa.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Flowtrail275_large.jpg Edited October 25, 2013 by The Crow
Mackie Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Was considered. Too scared to pick up the phone and get a quote.I did, local Enve agents quoted R7150, per rim! they may then wonder why they do not have a long and prosperous business to look forward to, they do not have stock, were unashamed of the price, but I have no doubt they will be first in line to b1tch about local consumers going abroad, vote, wallet I say.

Iwan Kemp Posted October 25, 2013 Author Posted October 25, 2013 I did, local Enve agents quoted R7150, per rim! No way in hell am I paying that for a rim. Can buy a complete carbon wheelset for that money. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
DJR Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Jiissus Crow, I haven't even finished drooling about your last build, and now you start it all over again. I'm going to get dehydrated at the rate you're going about it! Iwan Kemp 1
