Mavic 230 TIB... that's probably why it constantly needs truing. Rims made from tin foil ;)

Why not rebuild it to a hub you like and a rim worthy of it.

after using all 3 tioga versions, IMHO the radial pro is actually the strongest as the alu "buttons" dont rub on the cord on the opposing inner side of the disc.
