i do understand that, and i already knew that anyway lol but i suppose its like revision at school haha

but that wont make the need for longer spokes but possibly by about 2mm at most i think. measure the erd for me please

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 10:04)

If I knew how then I would!

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 10:14)

MEASURE THE INSIDE DIAMETER OF THE RIM its not hard

lol! get a measuring tape and measure from one inside part to the other side make sure oyu get it to its largest mm point then you'll know

wheres the picutres? do you build your own wheels ?

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 10:41)

Yeah I think you were right about it being 492.
I measured it up at roughly that, give or take a mm.
And yeah I hand built my own wheels

I will get some pics up now.

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 1:55)

i was looking at them 2 nights ago haha 490 grams right? it says the erd is 507 but thats impossible for a 24inch rim lol i think the erd for the runaway is 492 or something im gonna get one in chrome

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 3:05)

I beat you to it:P
Will get some pictures up later just to annoy you

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 10:56)

haha i knew it

i only knew it being around 492 through reading on some forums i think 507 islike the outer diameter of any 24inch rim, right? are you keeping your atomlab rims ?

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 11:21)

Yeah 507 is the outer diameter.
Im selling both wheels on the Charge ( DJD on Pimplite 36H and NS Simple Roller on Pimp 32H) and my Manitou's.
Might split the wheels up for the right price

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 4:30)

what is the precise e.r.d. of them can you let me know please so i know what spoke size to get, thanks man! are they nice ?

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 4:41)

On the rim it says 507 x blah blah blah.
You say that that would be too big for a 24" but the rim slopes in from the sides and the spoke hole are at angles so the spokes go straight instead of bending.
Like on the G-Sport rib cage bmx rims.

If you understand a word of what I have just said I will be amazed.

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 12:40)

is the alienation rim even that light ? in comparison to an atomlab pimplite

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 12:47)

Felt about the same if I remember correctly.
The Alienation is wider so looks sturdier.
You got msn? If so then message it to me.

keith24mtb (Jan 8, 2009 at 15:26)

where did you get your 36h pimplite from? crc ?

charge-rider (Jan 9, 2009 at 11:21)

Was a long time ago though.
Alienation runaways are where its at now Keith

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 11:22)

i'll buy your pimplite rim

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 11:29)

Â£36 with the nipples?
You know you wanna.

keith24mtb (Jan 10, 2009 at 11:36)

no thank you

i'll stick to getting the alienation rim in chrome

charge-rider (Jan 10, 2009 at 11:43)

amiright (Mar 30, 2009 at 9:41)

Which bars are they and what rise is it?

charge-rider (Mar 30, 2009 at 13:27)

They are the 2008 NS Bikes Districts with 3.5" rise

amiright (Mar 30, 2009 at 14:11)

how does the 3.5 rise feel, I assume that high rises are nicer to ride

charge-rider (Mar 30, 2009 at 14:16)

If you are running a rigid fork your front end can be rather low and with a high rise bar it helps when lefting up the front end of your bike.
I did have a 2" rise bar a while ago and it wasn't high enough but when I switched to a 3" rise and to this 3.5" it felt so much better.
Made manuals easy as pie.
