cant go much deeper as its an outdoor track, just want light,strong and stiff, but with the advantages of 23mm width rim and tyre match.
the charge dish wheel set is made by alex rims, its a 30mm rim, 23mm wide and 50g less than rigida dp18, 40 dollars but from USA
I currently ride/commute on CXP12 rims, like the CXP33 but no braking surface and ligthter. I cant find anymore in 36h. hit some nasty potholes with them and they held up well.
I suppose any light rim will be strong when built with a high flange hub in 36h?
dont think Ill be lossing any weight! just started power/olympic lifting at the gym after a long break, I gain muscle farily easy, Ill lean out maybe, also 6ft 3 so it fits on my frame nicely
