Thanks I was thinking it might be too skinny. Oh well.
Any rim recommendations? I tend to favour strength over weight (but not to an extreme - I weigh 14 stone but don't exactly do great big drops or anything, wheels mostly on the ground at all times).
Possibly worth getting something tubeless or tubeless friendly. Bit of a n00b with that but I have done it on a customer's bike before.
I'm not a fan of anything with straight pull spokes or propriety systems (Crank Bros Cobalt, Mavic weird fat spokes etc...) regular alloy (eyeletted!) rims with standard j bend spokes ftw.
