Burton Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Do you even own one of these Rims... Ask Porter!! He even says that they are stronger than the old CNC Rims!!CraigDamon has gone through these rims like food. 1 new rim, with a Tarty Build, lasts about a week. And that not even doing big stuff.Not worth the money or the hype. Maybe be different for the mod rims, but i wouldnt trust em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 To summerise, it seems like the mod rims are beasting..and the stock rims not so good. Sound about right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loosemoose` Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 For unicycling, go with a proven rim, thats an Alex DX32, a TryAll or Koxx Cheesehole, or (my preference) a KH 19" Freeride. Unicycles put way more transverse load onto a rim than normal bike trials, and you need to be careful to avoid tyre folding. A note about the TryAll/Koxx rims, Yoggi is constantly ripping the spokes through his rims and getting them replaced, so it'd be best to go for something eyeletted. I've heard good things about the new 19" Hog from Onza, check UDC.Loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 I vonly heard of 1 mod echo rim that has f**ked up... granty's....I havnt heard of any others, and i run mine with around 13PSi (i think) and do stupid gaps and drop gaps to rails n shit, but it still isnt dented or even slightly buckled yet.... the stock rims are weak as fook, proven!

RR_Trials Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Koxx Rims are the best i have run them for about 2 months with no problems landing bout 10 or 15 6ft drops with them and there are no dents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
