  • A good point. It is easy to get the weights for standalone rims (Open Pro, DT etc, ) but finding the weight of say a rim on a Fulcrum wheel is almost impossible.
    Is this because the makers don't want us to know...

    LOL. Actually, not too hard to back out a likely weight based on known spoke weights and likely hub weight. E.g. fulcrum 7 20h/24h weighs 1930g , pair of hubs of that quality (e.g. equivalent to 105s) are going to be 500g-ish for the pair, spokes 6g each:

    1930 - 500 - 6*44 = 1166g / 2 = 583g per rim

    Whopper! Give me a 32h Excellight/DT 1.1/Open Pro any day :-)


    OK correction, maybe my hub weight was off a little, say the hubs are 600g, that's still 530g per rim which is a lot more than any of the others mentioned.
