• AAMOI, Is there no rim that is more aimed at cargo than Andra40?

    btw, I noticed a comment from Dave Whittle at SJS/Thorn (on the Thorn forum somewhere) that they’d discovered that the wider walls of Andra 40 were thinner than Andra 30. He may have been talking specifically about the spoke bed wall, I don’t know.

    Maybe you could try those, or Big Bull, to see if you get the same cracking?

    Doesn’t look like it. And we really need it to say on paper that it is suitable for supporting heavy loads. Bit confused by their table but the Ryde Andra 40 claims 180kg ‘++’, big bull ‘high load’ 130kg ‘+’. Suggesting it can support 130-ish

    seems like they’ve made the Andra 40 wide and strong but the inner well bed too thin (exacerbated by sloppily finished drillings) so it can’t withstand the forces exerted upon it.

    I think it's clearer elsewhere in the literature that + means heavy loads and ++ means super heavy, with 130 and 180 being the maxima rather than loose guidance you can exceed at will 🙂

  • Seems like someone needs to have a go at a stronger rim.
