• Need to get my winter wheels re-built, currently Archetype H Plus Son rims on Hope hubs. Keeping the hubs but will replace the rims as spokes keep breaking on the rear.

    Should I just re-build the rear with another H Plus Son or is there a better all-round/winter rim that I should get a pair of to replace on both wheels? Kinlin XR22?

  • If you've been snapping spokes, if the existing wheels were reasonably well-built and given that you'll obviously be staying with the same number of spokes, you might want to go for a deeper and stiffer rim to distribute the loads between the spokes more evenly. As ever, the correct answer is probably the XR31T.
