• So am I correct in saying that if I want a 23mm lightweight rim, that isn't the poor quality control A23, that the pacenti SL23 the right way to go? Is there a better option out there that isnt crabon? I seem to recall archetypes were 450g once upon a time, but they all appear to be 470g now.

  • An oft-repeated anecdote of mine, but my mate Neil has gone through 3 rear Pacenti rims, all warrantied, with the spokes pulling through. Seems to be a manufacturing issue with powerful lads...

    They're gorgeous rims otherwise, apart from the whole tubeless-tyre-change nightmare.

    They should go and exchange themselves under warranty.

    yup, scales picture please.

  • This is normal of Pacenti, mine also does the same, as well as cracking.

    Pacenti made them way too weak.
