Wheelset Recommendations 28"

hey,

I would like to build up a sturdy set of 28" wheels for my bike. I am not really that much of trick biker, but I would like them to be able to take a little bit of a pounding, meaning some jumps and maybe even taking them of the paved roads...

additionally I am fairly fat for a biker, so something strong is needed.

What kind of rims can you recommend? and what kind of hubs? spoke count? Ideally it would be in the mid range concerning price, since the bike may be left unattended at times, and I don't really need something bling t show off.

any help is appreciated...

cheers

28inch?

you mean 29?

yeah.. was confusing the measurements, I guess.

29inch wise.

Todestreib rims are tough as shit.
Halo freedom rims are pretty good.
mtx 31,33,39 are beast.
any 29er mtb rims will do the job. check out chain reaction

I have got Todestriebs, though pricey, they are bombproof and worth every penny. Get some. Seriously HC

What do people think about mavic EN521 rims? I have bought some resist hubs and I am thinking of building them up for 26"

Anyone interested in buying a pair of polished HPlus Son Todestrieb 29er rims?

just bought some halo aerowarrior 26" 36h rims in chrome, hopefully they don't fold on me
