    Halo SASpro wheels seem to be pretty tough and good VFM, it just depends on how much you have to spend and if you want factory or custom wheels.

    Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:

    Nukeproof may make a hell of a rim, but the rear hub is as bad as the customer service you get when you ask for your third replacment in a month. I hate companies that lie to you and treat you like an idiot, add to that a crap product that breaks weekly and you have the wonder that is Nukeproof, cunts

    +1 Deemax.
    Why would I care about 150g of bike weight, I just ate 400g of cookies while reading this?

    The Nukeproof rim is actually a Sun rim
