No, we would if we ever mangled any, but the Spank Spikes are such insanely great rims we only blew one up this summer and that was the riders fault not the rims. Landing with your wheel at 90 degrees to the correct landing angle will do it every time. Ken

 That must have come with a fairly gnarly crash to!

 Yeah, he came down with the forks sideways and broke the brake mount off a boxxer team, exploded the rim and rolled out of it. It would have been expensive if he hadn't bought bike damage insurance. He was fine and that was all that really mattered. Yeah armor! Ken

 Wow what a lucky kid!That would be terrible to not have bike insurance,that makes me kinda want to start wearing armor again
