Hey! So I have a Norco Rampage 2 and they come with Alexrims MUS30 36 spokes that are 30mm wide. I found out that they are single wall rims and I'm pretty worried because I hear that they get wobbly really fast. I ride small dirtjumps, pumptrack and some street riding. My question is if they are strong enough for a dirtjump bike and can be reliable being single wall rims ?

Can you? Yes
Should you? No

They will not last if you push them hard. It’s not worth getting injured. Sell them to a rider that will never stress them to the point of failing....casual rider. Use the money to invest in better rims/wheel set.
