Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 31, 2016 Share I'm liking this... any chance of rim only options, or are they going to be limited to wheelset only at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted August 31, 2016 Share I'm liking this... any chance of rim only options, or are they going to be limited to wheelset only at this point?Would also like to see the wider options available as rims only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droo Posted August 31, 2016 Share Brass nipples are an improvement over their current wheelsets. Hopefully the new hubs are made of something less cheese-like than the 3-30s. This may even be an off-the-shelf wheelset I can recommend, and the price doesn't look ridiculous either. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 31, 2016 Share Sentry or Baron for me, most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odinson Posted August 31, 2016 Share Sentry or Baron for me, most likely. That's too wide [edit: for any tire over under 2.5"]. Mavic have done science tests which prove that you can go too wide. Also, according to Stan's NoTubes, you've got to go WideRight. http://brimages.bikeboardmedia.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/stans-notubes-wideRight-tire-shape-chart.gif Edited August 31, 2016 by Odinson Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if so, whose 2.5 are we using.. Continental's? In which case it's more like a 2.2... But yeah. Leaning towards the Sentry tbh. Having experienced Hans Dampfs on a 34mm internal rim, and how well they performed, I'm still tempted. But 29-32 is probably the max I'd go. And that's the Flow / Sentry.

BaGearA Posted August 31, 2016 Share I'm really eager to put on some 2.5 minions with a rim that has a 30mm internal, hakahana on a hardtail this past weekend was killer(insane fun tho...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
