Lawnmowerman Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 still makes a difference though. Ive only ground my rim once and ive had it for ages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corish Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 still makes a difference though. Ive only ground my rim once and ive had it for ages ← 4 is nothing, I had dents in it on the first grind so thats no difference, plus I have hard PSI, around 20PSI at 10Stone even my monty rim lasted longer with lower PSI :ermm: corish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 I have had the same grind on my ronnie rim now for about a month and a bit now and it still works well. Four grinds will make a difference though, and the amount of pressure you run also makes a difference obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Thats weird :( I'm over 12stone and i run about 15psi doing 7ft gaps to spikey walls and i havent dented my rim yet :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corish Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Mine must be a faulty one? Doubt it like, I'm glad to see the back end of it anyway, its pretty heavy :ermm: corish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalopS Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Ive got one of those echo ones i think, dented it twice now, got the wheel about 3 weeks ago :( I dented my ronnie rim too though, maybe im just a heavy rider :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawny Baby Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 ronnie are solid, and dont u ever doubt that.... 4 grinds? could be f**k all if u grind light, then again, if u grind hard, 4 grinds is enough to take away more than half the sidewalls!!!! ronnies are solid as hell, check out the ronnie thread in sites/pics/vids. ive been running my ronnie for 6 months now, and depsite several large dents its not flat spotted at all, and its a fecking tough rim!!!! and 20psi is NOT a hard presure, 40psi+ is hard, 20 is soft as fook for any serious riding.... you try doing anything large with 20psi and you WILL be rimming out the whole time.... no doubt the reason you ahve kiled the ronnie !!!! ronnies may weight a bit as tehy come from SC, but stick 1'' holes in them and they are a VERY respectable weight, with seemingly no loss of strength! ive been running ronnie/reggie rims for about 6 months now, and i love them. tehy didnt fall out of true at all for the first 4 months, so i decided to drill the holes bigger, ive not got 7/8ths holes in the front and 1'' in the rear, which is about as large as you can safely go i hve now a very stiff strong, and relatively light wheelset ronnies all the way :ermm: best rim to emerge sinse the 521 IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 They do mean on mod though, so maybe there's some difference there. Since when has 20psi been "hard" though? I have a minimum of 30psi in mine :( Sucks about the rim though :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewholdsworth Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 yeah i agree with onzaboymark, i run 35psi in my kujo on the rear and i have a massive 2.6 maxxis tube in. i thought that was low. i am 12 st and perhaps the least gentle rider ever just ask mr koxx. i do ride 26" though but never had any trouble with ex721/d521 with grinds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank_rider Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 how on earth have you managed to do that!! I have a ronnie on my stock and have been rimming out severely recently (17/18PSI) and havent managed to dent it at all. Thats after 3 light grinds and 6 months riding. I weigh in at 11.5 stone too.

onzamad Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 i run a 2.6 inner tube in my maxxis at about 25 psi and i ri my wheel all the time, prob because im just a rough as fook rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the666ers Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 50psi rear, 40 front. That's hard as far as I'm concerened and it's what I run to make sure I don't dent or pinch too often. 20 psi is hardly anything James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 20 psi is hardly anything It's hardly anything on 26 or 24 but on mod 25psi at the rear feels solid as you like so 20psi isn't too bad. I'm sure sam wheeler runs around 10psi... Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 I have about 20 in the front and 25ish in the back. Never dented a rim yet, 12st by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aust Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 4 is nothing, I had dents in it on the first grind so thats no difference, plus I have hard PSI, around 20PSI at 10Stone even my monty rim lasted longer with lower PSI :ermm: corish ← maybe your more of a tank than you used to be... i saw your vid and you could eb smoother.. ive never had a problem with them.. and neither have my mates.. i grind my rim pretty much every day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
