The rims have held up since mid august but the rear pinned seam is starting to go.
I rebuilt the rims a couple weeks ago and measured the rims with a micrometer. The revenge rim is identical to the quadrant rim. Not a bad rim at all and I am surprised they have held up this long (lots of cases etc.). I really don't want to buy a whole wheelset just to get rims again.
Does anyone know is these aftermarket rims will be offered in 22"? Apparently they have a welded seam.

--- Quote from: Stoked;3618664 ---There's a bunch of 24" tire options out there. If you can find some lightly used or pony up for new, the Schwalbe tabletops are nice. Tioga, maxxis, kenda, and dmr make some good ones.

Stoked is right the tabletop tire is amazing. As a matter of fact I still have the one pictured here on the front if you are interested Bob. Trade? It has a lot of tread left... like new and it weighs like 500 grams and grips crazy good especially in dirt.

Jay over at S&M said they were in the 22" game for the long haul, so I'm betting that those rims will be made in 22" also. :cheers:

We're in the process of building a 22" Holmes for a customer with all american made parts. I will report back with photos once it's compleate. Obviously we can't get %100 American made though (grips, tires).
