The Best 26" Rim


SamKidney

Recommended Posts

Little question,

Another chance I could be moving to 26", and would like to get clued up on parts :)

Looking for a rim which has good strength (TGS style riding), holds a grind well, and for around £40-£50 :)

Cheers guys.

Also,

the bike comes with Heatsink Yellows on a smooth trialtech powder coated rim.

Works bloody amazing with a tad of tar but would they be any better on a grind?

I swear by echo TR's on the rear and i give them a beating, tough rims! Plus again im another D521 fan, currently have one on the front, which used to be on the rear when i had a zebdi many years ago, so its probably a good 6 - 7 years old and still true!!! The D521's a bomb proof!! :) Only reason why i dont use one on the rear is that there not wide enough for my liking.

Agree with D521, I also have one on the front and it's taken a lot of hits and is still true, I'm surprised it doesn't have an up/down buckle with the amount of times I haven't quite made an up to front and just smashed it against the edge of the wall. The Try-All rim I was using before it got so bent in one bail it couldn't spin in the forks.

Also agree with Trialtech Undirlled, heavy but strong. And personally I don't like holes that much.
