DT Swiss TK540 comes in a disc variant.

rims are apparently 550g
It would help if you provided some information, such as tyre size, spoke count and whether tubeless is important to you.
550g is an appropriate amount of metal to use for a touring rim. Some CTC types swear by the ~750g Rigida Sputnik, so if anything you're already at the lightweight end of the spectrum.

Im selling a pair of velocity Blunt SS's.
Front is 32h and rear 36h. In black.

Any good ??

Interested in rim recommendations for a front dynamo hub for touring. Wanting something sturdy (front rack) although figure much of the weight will be on the rear. Want black rims and be good to have disc specific. Current rims are Bontrager Duster Elite TLR but wondering if there's something that might not be so heavy (rims are apparently 550gm). Suggestions gratefully received
