TheJ Posted January 25, 2018 Share The rims are slightly heavy( but not bad at all), so for the full built wheels to come in at that weight, the hubs must be pretty light.Great price!Well done Lyne!! Wens ek kan 'n paar AM Classic Wide Lightning rims raakloop. Hulle erens tussen 399 en 410g. 29.3mm internal width, vs Lyne se 495g @ 30mm. Lyne Pulse 25mm @ 440g, American Classic Race rim, 24mm @ 360g Steeds, afhangende van prys sou ek 'n Lyne Pulse consider, 25mm is breed genoeg, maar moet 32h wees, nie 28h nie.

Lyne Components Posted February 1, 2018 Share is 1775g for 29" wheels not on the heavy side? Hi Mongoose The thinking behind our wheelsets was to look at the issues that very wide & lightweight wheels are having and try to overcome them with some different thinking. Conventional thinking says remove weight on the outside, because that's rotational weight, but this doesn’t take in to consideration that this is the same area receiving the abuse on impact. We opted for a more robust rim profile with high-end lightweight spokes and hubs to keep weight down because at the end of the day the fastest wheels are the ones that get you to the finish line Also by using a slightly narrower profile (Pulse) the durability isnt hampered because the walls of the rim don’t have to be excessively thin to keep the weight competitive. In our opinion a 25mm internal profile with a 2,1-2,25" tyre is a good balance of tyre stability, durability and lightweight for Marathon and XC. AMP is best paired with 2,25-2,5" tyres for trail use. Cheers Dayle TALUS, Jewbacca, DirtyDan and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
