Does anywhere sell these ready made? Struggling to see them so far.
Thanks
yup. not ready made, but what's the difference?

Hope sell their own rims now, have ditched the flow for Hope Hoops
If you want 26 I'd be inclined to go for a custom build with either Arch or Flow mk3, as they're wider than the Arch/Flow Ex rims that used to come on the complete wheelsets, yet the same weight. They're supposed to have slightly lower sidewalls too, which might make fitting tight tyres less of a trauma (Arch EX and WTB Vigilante needs a motorbike tyre lever!)
Don't know where you live but Moonglu, JRA and 18 Bikes have a good rep for wheelbuilding.
Alex Bennet of Ticky Bikes in Oldham will build you any wheel you want.

thats cause WTB tyres aren't compatable with stans wheels lol

By not compatible Stans just mean too tight. Once they're on (which does take some effort) they seat fine and there aren't any problems
Thanks all, I'll look at these options
Not Recommend Tires
WTB TCS and UST 29 inch tires are too tight for Stan's Notubes rims and NoTubes licensed rims such as Sun Ringle Black Flag.
