I am in search for new aluminium 29" 32h XC Race rims. I have been looking "29" DT-Swiss X 392 32h" but did not find them as good enough. Want them to be as light as possible for fast climbing and stiff at the same time. So your recommendations for price tag of 60-70 +- euros (actually you can put better rims with those) are all welcome.

    why where they not good enough.

    Also for wheel that climb wheel are stiff rather than just light.

    I use Ryde Trail 25 and quite like the Velocity Blunt SS. Both stiff rims both allow you to climb well. Both are not hugely light but you just pick light hub and thinner spokes. Both these rims are stiff enough to cope with thinner spokes.
