onzatprodude Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) Hi,Could you help me in looking for a rear 20" rim. It will have to be really strong, pretty much 'bombproof' because i am wanting it to last as i havnt got a job and cant keep spending money. On the rear i will also be getting a 2.7 tyre and im guessing that will be quite heavy so try and make the rim you are suggesting light. It will also have to be 32h.Lets see what you come up with Thanks fergie Edited February 25, 2006 by onzatprodude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deonn h Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) ok thanks i didnt know that i will be needing a grind so if you are unable to grind them rims i will have to look for something elsefergieYou can grind them.Here is the tartybikes description.- Trials-specific rims from Echo.- Super wide 47mm wide rim offering un-paralleled anti-roll performance, even at the lowest of pressures.- 24mm holes to shed vast amounts of weight.- High grade aluminium alloy construction for maximum grind life and dent resistance.- Double wall construction for increased strength and stiffness.- Also features double thickness sidewalls! These help prevent dents, and provide extra rim life since the rim can be ground many more times!- Cleverly placed internal walls (see picture), situated closer to the spoke bed than other rims, help support the spokes better, for a stiffer and stronger wheelbuild.- Un-eyeletted to save around 50g of weight per rim!- Anodised finish (including the braking surface) works great out of the box, but can be ground away should you wish.- Colours: Black, Silver, Red, Blue, Green and Gold!- Available in 32h only.- Weight: 476g Edited February 25, 2006 by Deonn h Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onzatprodude Posted February 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 is there any advances on the echo 06 and monty rims? has anyone tried out viz rims they look sweet just not sure about strenght?cheers fergie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onza t-rex Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 I was thinking about the echo 06 rim but i think them holes will make it weak has any one had them and what are your opinions on them.cheers fergiehi this might help you but might not. i have the 26" try-all rim but 2005 model rim i know its a lot bigger but the smaller ones are even stronger and i have been heavy when landing off walls but nothing has happened to it so i would say go for a tri-all rim.hope this helped nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echoteam!! Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 The 19" Try-all rims are not as bad as poeple say they are. but i would go for the echo 06 rim even stronger than the last ones the monty rims are only good when they are built well, and also they are nice and light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 just to confuse matters...why not get a hog?they come in 32 hole , they're wide (47mm), i haven't dented mine yet, they have eyeletted spokeholes so they aren't shit weak - and they're only £30 from tarty. no hog shaped drillings on the 32hole versions though - you'd have to settle for round ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzatprodude Posted February 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 thanks for your replys people i was hoping for my rim to be red or blue so i dont think the hog will be any good for me but thanks.hoping someone will reply about the viz rims or its going to have to be a echo or try all.cheers fergie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan@Trials-uk Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 (edited) thanks for your replys people i was hoping for my rim to be red or blue so i dont think the hog will be any good for me but thanks.hoping someone will reply about the viz rims or its going to have to be a echo or try all.cheers fergieViz rims features eyelets and available in 32 and 36H and comes in 46mm, 42mm and 8 different colours.The new rims feature smaller drilling, meaning a lot more strength and the eyelets also prevent the spokes from ripping out the rim from heavy impacts. After using a set on stock and mod for about 8months now, they're still going strong today:) These rims will definatly out last most rims out on the market now.
