Here is a quick shot of the new rim. It is 70mm wide and has the same tire width and profile of the 80mm rims we have been using, only it’s 360 grams lighter. We will be getting more soon in silver or black, and also offset drilled for the Pugs.

How can the 70mm give the same tire profile? The 80s change the profile quite a bit from the 65mm Large Marges right? The weight savings HUGE!
How do these compare in strength to the regular 80mm rims? I’m a little scared of the single wall. For straight up snow riding they would be great, but I will be using my bike for some urban adventuring up and down stairs and things in addition to snow riding. How will they hold up to more normal abuse?
How is a 10mm narrower rim getting you the same tire width and profile? Do you know what the weight will be for the 32 hole version? Do they come drilled out like that? Thanks.
What rim is that?
Where can I get one of these? I want one
