29" wheel buildup question.(4 posts)

29" wheel buildup question.Bogus
Dec 10, 2002 6:29 AM
I'm building up a 29" MTB for cross country racing--I weigh 180 lbs. I just got the 2003 XTR groupo with disc brakes and 32 spoke hubs. What are good rim choices for me?

I have a Matt Chester 29er and love it!!! I use Velocity rims (Dyad), 32 hole. Although they do not have nipples, the wheel has remained strong and true even with a season of hard XC racing and a fun time at Moab.

Me thinks you mean the Dyads do not have eyelets on the spoke holes. Ya gotta have nipples.
