Hi, For my 40th I’m building a 29er hardtail but I’m sick of black rims. I’d like some silver rims instead. Any ideas/recommendations? I’m not the smallest or lightest of fellas so strongish would be great. Cheers |

Ooo, i'm doing something similar for my "approaching 40th" What frame you got? How wide a rim are you looking for? A mate of mine bought some new spank silver rims (26") for a jump bike a while ago. They may do a 29" Halo might do some... Er. Doubt Mavic do these days but you could see what's around |

Hi, I’m saving for a Banshee Paradox as I have a Prime and my wife has a spitfire. Trying to stay away from red parts too (my weakness). I’m a big guy so want something about 30mm wide but can go narrower. I just don’t want an ebike like some of my mates - why go heavier when I’d like to build something lighter. Ebikes are ok but just not for me. |

Try Velocity in the USA for a Blunt. Or you can ask Rad15 in Holland if they can supply some Ozone30's without black anodising? |

Wider doesn't necessarily mean stronger tho eh. Be interesting to see what you come up with. Can't be many about |
