Death shiny lift wheels

[Apache]

All a bit much really, so I ordered these today

Them's nice. So few spokes confuse me though. The engineer in me says it's fine, the coward says it's not.

That's the same arguement that makes me stay off rolercoasters...

If I return in 6 weeks with my face wired on, we'll know

They're fine as long as you don't stop!

Discs my man. Who'd want to scuff those shiny rim surfaces?

Mine are black rims, with silver hubs / 20mm thru axle front

same thoughts

amazing how so few contact points on the rim can carry the load - i take it 1 broken spoke and your kissing the pavement.

spoke tension must be pretty critical as well - 1 loose one and you've got an egg.

they do look good though

Are they for a MTB or road bike? Great on the road, but not sure I would trust them on a rocky decent offroad.
Have fun,

They're XC wheels, though the reviewers have had them freeriding and downhilling.

I'm not really into downhilling these days, more trail ride / XC. They'll be fine. They're 24 spoke, not 12. They're just paired rather than offset (like Mavic's XC wheels)
