This set was loads of fun, Custom painted Chris King R45 hubs in pink by Cole Coatings Workshop in Dulwich. Now living in Denamrk!
Boyd Altmaont Lite rims are a firm favourite of mine for a do it all rim. Nice geometry – 24mm outside, 19.75mm inside 25mm deep and only 450g each. Tubeless ready too whoch seems to be industry standard now.
Boyd also make a 30mm deep version which weighs nearer 500g and is super stiff. Both rims are available for rim brake and disc brake set ups.
