Nofearnofun Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 Looking to build a set of 27,5" wheels, I already have superstar hubs so I just need rims to lace them into. They must be able to take a beating, have an inner width of 25mm or more and not weigh a ton. obviously weight isn't a major priority but it is a factor. What rims would you buy?
Odinson Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 WTB i25 Frequency Team - relatively cost effective and from the reviews I've read, should be good for South African #Enduro trails.
Wolf Lyle Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 I'm in exactly the same position. except I need hubs too.. pretty much decided on Flow ex's on Hope hubs. but was a toss up between them and a set of American classic Wide Lightning's
Nofearnofun Posted December 1, 2014 Author Posted December 1, 2014 I am loving the look of the E - thirteen hoops! Looking for something a little more cost effective tho...
the nerd Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 WTB i25's, or the velocity blunt 35's. Both my brother and I have beaten on Velocitys and have failed to crush them!
Hairy Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 ENVE!!nah, those are not good enough for superstar components hubs

Nofearnofun Posted December 2, 2014 Author Posted December 2, 2014 ENVE!! Nah, I would be too scared to ride with them! I want something I wont mind replacing after smashing them through rocks...
Super_mil Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Where to buy Frequency i25's? International Trade are the WTB agents.
Nofearnofun Posted December 2, 2014 Author Posted December 2, 2014 International Trade are the WTB agents. They only bring in the i23's
Super_mil Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 They only bring in the i23's Then CRC.I just got a couple i25 Frequency (26') rims at pretty decent prices.Used 'regular' free mail and they were delivered in 3 weeks.Get the spokes locally and build them yourself.

CRC only have the Frequency i25's in 26" amd 29", no 27,5"
Capricorn Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 What about the mavic crossmax XL WTS? (wheel tyre system). It's available locally, but unfortunately it includes the tyres. The new hubs sound and look amazeballs.
