Eddy Gordo Posted November 17, 2017 Share The Hopes are a great start. Sun ringles are great!! the Inferno range is more Enduro/ trail/ xc orientated depending on model. Have a look at the Ringle MTX series. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/za/en/sun-ringle-mtx-33-welded-mtb-rim/rp-prod26292 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duane_Bosch Posted November 17, 2017 Share You seem like a destroyer of things. I'd recommend Mavic EX 823. I'm not sure they are still attainable tho but I've had 2 sets and never had an issue. Flat at Tokai. No worries. Just roll down the road on the flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy Gordo Posted November 17, 2017 Share Read the reviews, based on other peoples experience, compare the stats and joining options. Then decide which wheel you gonna take. They are all pretty solid, you just most likely need something extra heavy duty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popcorn_skollie Posted November 18, 2017 Share For the record. This is what I done to my Supra BH's. The entire hoop is covered in flat spots and dings. I can help though. I have a good condition 35mm wide DH hoop for you. Its proven to be stronger than the Supra BH since I had them both on the bike at some stage. Not sure which brand though. Its plain grey. Its a 36 hole hoop too so its stronger. Since you need a 150x12mm (36 hole) rear hub for that hoop. I got you covered there as well. And I have spokes too. Since its black friday in my garage. Swing by and take the lot for cheap as chips. Or to swop for what have you. You just need someone to lace them up for you. They're all just spares anyways. You have my number.
