Road Wheels & Road Wheel Recommendations?

I very rarely get punctured on the Grand Bois 42mm despite having no puncture resistance for the last 3+ years.

Ditto on Compass 38mm.

Ed any first hand experience with Cayuse Pass? Keen on those for road bike

Good winter wheel for beater? ;)

Cost a lots more than this.

These any good?

I question the weight claim, especially when the rear is 32h.

WOW! Foot in mouth!

I think when it says nachgewogen it means they have weighed them themselves. Although its probably without skewers.

On second look though the rim (Kinlin xr 200) aren't very wide so not really comparable with the other wheels.

Anyone know if DT Swiss r460 rims are in stock anywhere? I cannot find.

What are you trying to build?

A cheap as possible wide rim wheelset.

Fulcrum 7 LG from europe

Fulcrum 7 LGs or a touring rim wheelset with Ambrosio/Tiagra/105 hubs.

Will call some German retailers and find out how they are out of stock everywhere.

Latex tubes arrived today. Tyres soon

are this any good? as spline 23 (dt r460 rim) but heavier spokes and cheaper?

Latex tubes and carbon clinchers a flat no-no?

Depends on the terrain - if it's all a bit pointy then the heat caused by braking repeatedly from high speeds can pop latex inner tubes, apparently - I've never seen it personally, and I've descended on tubs with latex inners in the Alps and other mountain ranges.

wat

He means get them from a european shop eg bike-discount.de although they're almost as cheap on Chain Reaction at the moment.

Ditto Fulcrum 7 LG, or the 5

Ask your rim/wheel manufacturer/seller. AFAIK the answer is going to be no. You'd be OK on the track and most flat TTs.

Apologies if this has been covered already...

Tyre recommendations for wide rims? Used tips from a couple pages ago to get 25mm open corsas on to my new arc22 rims yesterday. They did go on but I don't fancy that fight on the side of the road with half a club looking at me.

They do look badass though. Come out at 27.5mm and have plenty of clearance on new synapse frame, enough for sks guards which surprised me

The loud noise of Hope hubs stops if/when you regrease them.

Go for the widest you can go.

The tyres will stretch a bit making it easier to mount/remount when necessary.
