Hello chaps, the below question has been posted on a cycling thread elsewhere and I don't have a clue.
As t'other users who can help aren't on-line, I figured I'd quickly throw it over here, to the experts.
I'm after a bit of advice. I need to replace the rims on my bike. They are currently Mavic Sup T217 which they do not make any more which I understand means they are 17mm and they have 36 spoke holes. I use my bike for city riding and going on trails so they need to be reasonably strong for pot-holes and the tree roots I encounter but not uber mountain bike strong. I want to keep my current hubs as they are reasopnably good and prefer not to throw stuff away for no reason. I am happy to spend a reasonable but sensible amount to get something good and suitable for my needs. If it makes any difference my bike is made by Condor. Thanks in advance
and thanks from me, too.
