I got the 25mm inner width with I9 1/1 hubs, 28 spoke front, 32 rear. Under 1500g with rim tape and valve. Rode for a week in North Carolina with lots of roots and rocks and speed and held up perfectly. I’m sold on them. $1200.
I have the light bicycle wheels on my sl. My wheel set is 4.5 lbs lighter with xt cassette. The stock aluminum roval wheelset with nx cassette and butcher tires is very heavy
I agree on intended use. It makes a great trail bike and takes the edge off long or steep climbs. I’m loving mine. Just fun to ride and at 36lbs, not too heavy.
Agreed. I asked because your build is similar to mine and I dropped 6lbs by getting rid of nx drivetrain and wheels for my light build. My heavy build adds 4 lbs with coil shock and burly wheels and tires
Yes, it will work fine. You will have to adjust air pressure for your weight and riding style. You can add tokens if you need more progressive damping.
