Mark W Posted May 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 The Trialtech Carthy Signature Series Rims are now available - currently out in 26", 32h form front and rear. Ridiculously stiff but pretty light too (577g for the rear, which isn't a million miles off other companies rims, despite the Trialtech rim being a hell of a lot stronger). Due to them being double wall the sidewalls have a bit more support/stiffness too so should improve brake feel. Carthy seemed very happy with his, and Joe Prattley and Gilles Coustellier have been giving them something to think about too. A video overview thing from Trialtech: And some general photos: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix_HBtrials Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 Great news! These are proper trials rims, why focus on drilling holes with different pattern for so many years when getting a proper die to get a proper rim profile is the way to go! Can't wait to ride those. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niconj Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Can't wait for Damon Watson to test these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Yea, I was going to say, where's all the "modern trials parts are so weak" brigade now? (Probably browsing boxing shoes on SportsDirect) Your prayers have been answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
