My trail bike has WTB i29 rims laced to hope pro2.
These were an affordable upgrade to the previous hope enduro rims, which were too narrow for my liking.
I've always wanted to upgrade the rims to something a bit nicer and the opportunity has arisen to get some Stan's Arch MK4.
Weight saving is just over 120g per hoop.
Does anyone think I'd be able to tell the difference? Everyone goes on about how much better lighter wheels are, but even expensive carbon stuff isn't much lighter at this kind of rim width.
