  • I agree the FF is a great rim, absolutely bombproof, it's stood up to everything I've thrown at it over the years without ever need more than minimal truing. This, though, would have me believe that it's massively overbuilt for use as a front rim (with the same 32h spoke count). Archetype's are 200g (I think?) lighter and give a nicer tyre profile, being 23mm wide as apposed to the 19mm FF.

    Flo30 and A23 might also be worth looking at but the archetype rides so nicely that I'm considering relacing the rear onto one.

    Cheers for the info, sounds like it's exactly what I'm looking for. Think i'll pull the trigger on the Archetype once I get the funds.
