Wheels for a big chap

Posted on
  • Anyone got a good set up recommendation for wheels for the bigger bloke?
    Mate of mine is 22 stone and keeps busting spokes on his Genisis. Would just getting the wheel rebuilt with better spoke be ok, or will he be better off getting a 36 hole set up? I was thinking maybe H+Sons rim, formel hubs etc?

    What do most of the bigger folk on here ride, Arrowspok are out of his budget!

  • Yes, he's too heavy for 32 spoke rims.

    Rigida Sputniks are a good choice for a road rim. Things will be much more comfortable with a 32mm tyre too.
