Heavier riders, or those that prefer a high degree of wheel stiffness will prefer this rim. It offers a very wide platform and will feel incredibly stable. Generally speaking, you want to run 2.3” or larger tires to get a nice profile. You can run tires up to 3” with this internal width.
All of our 2017 rims have a new layup process that we've developed to make our rims stronger than ever. Every seam overlaps at a different position within the rim in a strategic position. Our center channel now interlocks with the hookless lips through multiple layers to help distribute impact forces.
