Prepping for #1's next bike.. need some 26" rims to lace to the 28h 240 hubs I have for this project.
I'm after light weight but 25-30mm width.
26mm Arch Mk3 at 406g
29mm Flow mk3 at 459g
What else is out there? I've been snoozing with any other offerings than DT and Stans
I know DT's catalogue but the ex471 at 475g is a little overkill and tricky to find in 28h

Have a look at Superstar, they have all sorts knocking around, and super cheap.
All the cheap stuff is skinny or those actually pretty nice looking elements are 32h only. They'd be great as a 32h 24" dj build probably.
Any other 26" sources ?
Lb must be worth a look, they do carbon rims to spec.
When I got my 26ers they offered a number of lay-ups (xc/am/dh) and spoke counts.
Anything on here?

I've been assured they're strong rims :o)
