T-BAD Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 i was just wondering if you could lace a 32hole rim to a 36 hole hub?? E.g. echo rim to a profile..... would this wheel build be just as strong or would it just be a pile of you no what? all comments appreciatedcheers Liam.....

I think you miss a hole (On the hub) every 3 or 4 holes...The mod Echo rims are WAY stronger than the Stock rims... Mines AWESOEM and holds grinds like a rate biatch!! plus the smooth anadise coating is a good brake surface aswell Use Mutany spokes on your build aswell Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RR_Trials Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 It should be just as strong as an ordinairy wheel build just aslong as it is equaled out (dont lace to spokes then not to then lace 3 and not 1<for example) If it isnt equal you may find landing a nice drop will end up in no more rim Hope this Reply helps!!

Will Arnold Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 the hub will be under uneven pressure, so the flanges might develop cracks and break. thats only a possibility mind....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickycoleman Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Im sure CLS uses/used a Profile on an Echo rim, missing a few holes here and there, so it must be do-able. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
