BicyclePower Posted March 15, 2019 Share Take a look at the Concept Speed Carbon rims, nothing but positive feedback from clients and being direct to consumer means super aggressive pricing. https://www.bicyclepower.co.za/product-category/mountain-bike-wheels/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awesme Posted November 18, 2019 Share Mr budget kicks it's heals in... Ended buying a pair of DeeD Alu rims, that will be paired with my current Chris King hubs thats on my current Pyga Marathon Carbon rims. This will go onto the current bike / Pyga Stage. The new hubs will then be married with my carbon rims (Pyga Marathon) for the new bike (Pyga MOBU). Spoke to a friend the past weekend, he just landed a pair of Chinese carbon's. he will test them, if he is happy... he is not small, then he will bring in more, But still keen on: http://www.xmcarbonspeed.com/Productinfo.asp?f=1395Looks like a good buy, just the shipping options and current budget that sunk this for now.

GAlso riding the Pyga Stage mainly for marathon type rides (36One and Trans etc) and for multi day events. Looking for some new rims but not sure budget will allow or if I even want carbon for the type of riding I do. Seldom do anything to hectic/gnarly!! I guess I'm trying to figure out if carbon will make and difference to me on Marathon type events. Really like the look of the WTB KOM tough rims....to be built on Hope Hubs.
