Got the Velocity K525 rims with XTR hubs on my 99 custom Zaskar. V.Light and supa-strong, have withstood a fair amount of abuse and have remained straight and true. Impressively light and strong offering excellent value for money compared to other rims.

None

These Aussie hoops offer excellent strength / weight for the money. Top stuff and thoroughly recommended.

Hey, there shold be a section for these under rims......hope you mtbr guys will add one. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..

Looks beefy.

Isn't beefy. Heavy! Hard to inflate tube. Must have long valve tubes that LBS dosen't carry in 2.1 width. Dents easily! Cracks on welds in middle of race!

I thought that the extra width and depth of this rim would equate to extra strength. All it adds is extra weight! These are hard to find appropriate tubes for so I got an addapter. The problem is the addapter dosen't allow a tire guage to work so I had to guess air pressure.
The rim dents very easily on the side walls! And it cracked on the weld ruining a perfectly good race day.
Bottom line... get this rim if you are looking to add extra weight to your bike with little or no added performance.

strong. i've been using these on a tandem that had destroyed two mavic 521 rims at the back. the deep v's have remained straight and round.

narrow.
deep - only a problem if you can't find long valved tubes, or your lbs can't get you a campagnolo valve extender.

well worth the money, i just wish they still had a uk importer.

don't confude them with the less deep models.
