spaceman Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'm riding a 24''. Currently I'm using a DM24 for the rear, and I find it quite narrow. (My 4-bolt mounts are spaced too wide too)I'm stuck on which rim to get, either a DX32 (plenty in my country ) or some trials-specific 46mm rim, like the viz rim.I ride more of street than trials, and so I wonder if a 46mm rim would too wide? DX32 is just 39mm, and I reckon that width is quite good.I don't really mind the width, but I would like to hear your opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I've got an atomlab rear rim, it does the job perfetly fine. It's quite thin so I have to use the tensile offset mounts. Atomlab rims are really strong too.I'm going to upgrade to the v!z rims soon though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomlab rims are really strong too.I'm going to upgrade to the v!z rims soon though.Hmm, but rhynolite and the atomlab are quite narrow too, though they're very strong.I almost gotten the tensile offset clamps, but I realised you can't really push the slave cylinders in? There's a limit as shown on the pink line. I guess it's more for positioning the cylinders further out. How did your's work? And by viz, you mean the one with the flower and hexagonal drilling?(sorry for using the pic off tarty) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomN Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 if you can get a dx32 in 24 then you dont need any other rim. they are great my 26 one is still going strong. and i would love a 24" dx32 when i move to 24 trials.

Luke Rainbird Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I wish I could get hold of 24" DX32s - there's be no question about what i'd be running!To be fair though a set of Rhyno Lites should do the trick nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceman Posted September 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I actually got the rhynolites, but had to sell them off cos they were too narrow for my frame D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The atomlab rim is just wide enough to work, it would seem.Yeah, I'd get the flower hexagon ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 It's aaaalllll about Trialtech rims. 38mm wide and would be perfect for the sort of riding you're describing, especially if you need the extra strength of an undrilled rim. Well worth a look . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
