I've been deliberating over what rims to go with for this bike:
The hubs will be polished high-flange Phils and the spokes silver also (36h 3-cross rear, 32h radial front). I'll be keeping the front brake so a proper braking surface is essential for the front one.
Open Pros would be the sensible option but I'm drawn to the 'bright silver' (very shiny but not mirror-polished) deep Vs and even the black H+sons (not the silver ones mind).
I'm after good quality sturdy wheels that aren't too heavy and that look good too. I won't be doing tricks on 'em.
Anyway, just curious to see what people think...?
thanks.
