UKAI RIMS

[clockworkgazz]

Anyone know anything about this rim maker?

Second biggest rim manufacturer in Japan I believe but beyond that I know nowt- reason for asking is tha I've just got a weelset with them on and on the face of it, they look like nice well-built rims- not the lightest but solid looking?

lots of these on 91/92 Konas. I actually really liked them on my 1992 explosif back in the day and my friend has a set on his 1991 Cinder Cone, and loves them too. Nice narrow profile.

good info lads- thanks.

The rims do look nice if a bit plain and pretty bombproof.

Yeah 'cos you need "bombproof" being the freeridin' big air monster that you are :roll:

AC you know I get a nose bleed if I get more than 1 inch of air

They will be good for me 'cause I never pick a good line and always end up in the rough stuff :roll:
