I just built a wheel using a No BS rim I ordered from Velocity USA's
webstore.
Roger, if your rim is mill finished, then it would be the no BS version
of the Atlas . As you mention, it's likely a marketing term, but it's an
Atlas just like the others minus the polishing. The cost reduction appears
to be simply the less production cost in the finishing.

Funny - I see it the other way around. The Atlas is just more expensive due to
polishing. Where's that celebrated satin finish folks like on their Sugino
products?

Looks like the premium price on the Atlas is for the finish work.

The NoBS rim seems to be 700C only.

They are polished and look silver... Actually they look like the Velo-Orange

Anyway..look silver to me :).

They sure look nice, but the $107 price tag (to me) is way over the top...
There are many great alternatives for MUCH less $...
What's so special about these rims to justify a price over $100 ???

A lot of Velocity's rims went up in price over the past year. The Synergy
isn't far from $100, and IMO it's a mediocre rim. I'm glad to have another
650B option. I wish the Dyad 650B would come back...

A longish while back Grant mentioned a rim project so this may be the end
product. So far, my Mavic A719s have held up well, despite my poor
off-road skills and trying (in vain) to keep up with Mike on the
downhills. The Velocity would be a candidate to replace the Mavics, esp
given their

A longish while back
I just finished building my wheel set for my Bombadil with these rims.
The are polished and build up nicely. They do not have machined brake
surfaces but seem to perform beautifully ... I've been using the front one
on the AHH the last week since I sold the front wheel for that bike.
