its a good looking set, by far the nicest wheels i think ive owned! dont make the mistake i made though, i couldnt find it anywhere online but these rims wont accept schrader valve tubes. got some prestas coming today and i shall taking it on its first ride
@iliketoridesometimes: wait I've only just seen this comment! It doesnt take normal Schrader tubes? What the f haha, I spent £16 on my damn maxxis tubes. What about drilling the valve hole on the rim that should be fine? Just a thought though, I'd be fine with moving to presta tubes if not lol
@keith24mtb: yeah that caught me out too after spending on tubes, I dunno about drilling, I looked this up also and saw I'd be damaging the strength of the rim, and I'd rather fork out a few quid on new tubes than wreck an expensive set of rims.
@iliketoridesometimes: I mean, the hole will only be a few mm wider, I did drill a rim with 72 holes ones and it never broke, haha, but I'm leaning towards presta tubes, do they hold air better than Schrader? I would only assume so! Thanks for the heads up anyway man appreciate
@keith24mtb: it may be ok, not done it myself and I was just going on what I'd read online. So far I've had no issues with the prestas running at 65psi
