from uk Date Reviewed: August 6, 2011 Strengths: strong light ish and they look ok to (not in your face). rim beed is a good thing and a major strength (wen running tubless) but also their biggest weekness as they are really hard to seat. Weaknesses: the rim beed, ( take out your valve core and run a dribble of fairy liquid (any dish wash liquid) all the way round the tyre and rim beed. then as you pump the tyre ensure the beed seats on both sides oposite the valve. do not worry about the rest, once thats on you will notice probably that both side are seatd by the valve as well so you 2 oposite point that the tyre is seated, now pump like a madman! the tyre will seat when u get to arround 40-60 psi. i had problems with these but this works for me every time.

from Mexic / Austria Date Reviewed: June 29, 2011 Strengths: apparently light, fairly maintenance free, 3 years of bashing on them and they have never been trued, no spokes have been loosened and they have almost null scratches , absolutelly null dings, or flat spots. Tires seat secure enough. Weaknesses: Their design (graphic) is sooooo boring, hubs could be better, perhaps with a hope hub these would rock. It isnt that easy to install the tires on them, I mean make them pop. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Some around Innsbruck Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Purchased At: came stock with the Similar Products Used: All Mountain rims, hmm none. Bike Setup: stock, except for the tires... after riding Nevegals, and Minions now I am Schwalbe all the way.

from phoenix, az, usa Date Reviewed: October 11, 2009 Strengths: Value, strength Weaknesses: could be lighter. Because of the deep center channel, I initially had issues with the rim strip slicing tubes, nothing switching to a new rim strip wouldn't handle. I'm running ghetto tubeless now.

from W,Sussex Date Reviewed: November 16, 2007 Strengths: Much stronger than the cross country version. It’s not silver like some other WTB rims. It felt strong and controlled on heavy rocky sections. It spins very fast and for a long time, which I suppose is more to do with the hubs. It also spins straight unlike some other rims. Weaknesses: None. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: All of Surrey Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $2800.00 Purchased At: Nirvana Similar Products Used: Mavic, DT Swiss X430 Bike Setup: Giant Trance X2 2008 with full XT, the rest is stock.
