Re: [RBW] Re: Rims for tubeless conversion
They absolutely won't match the rest of your stable, but probably the best, solid wheelset out there for the price.I've done 2 cross seasons on them and lots of screwing around on them the rest of the time. And I'm 230#.

Re: [RBW] Re: Rims for tubeless conversion
Yes, I'm seeing those for $320 on Chain Reaction, but those spoke counts are very troublesome to me. 20 in the back and 16 in the front? Seems a little (or a lot) risky.

[RBW] Re: Rims for tubeless conversion
Yes, the Velocity A23 looks like a very good option, Bill. I told my brother to get this and order some Schwalbe Pro One's from Germany for a tubeless setup, should be pretty sweet. I think that's the new slick tubeless tire from Scwalbe that someone mentioned in another post. He's getting it in 622 X 28mm.

Velocity A23 is an option.

[RBW] Re: Rims for tubeless conversion
Pacenti offers rims that are tubeless compatible with rim brake surfaces. HED also does the Belgium Plus in a rim brake model that has a tubeless profile as well.
